Super Visa Medical Insurance

With a Super Visa you can visit Canada for up to 2 years and you won’t need to renew your status. This is also a multi-entry visa so you can enter Canada multiple times up to 10 years. This differs from a Regular Visa with 10-year multi-entry that only allows you to stay up to 6 months.

To apply for a Super Visa in Canada you must have Super Visa Insurance.

Requirements for a Super Visa in Canada

  • Visitors to Canada must have at least $100,000 in medical insurance issued by a Canadian insurance company.
  • The insurance must be valid for a full year. This ensures visitors can pay for their health care if they become sick or injured while in Canada.
  • Visitors to Canada must be the parent or grandparent of a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident of Canada.

NOTE: Purchase your Super Visa Medical Insurance plan before you arrive in Canada. It may be purchased when you arrive, but waiting periods will apply.
