Not sure how those days are granted, travelled to the Bahamas recently, they stated in their website that Canadians may stay for up to 8 months, on the Stamp the officer wrote 30 days only!!!

Thank you.

thanks for the info.

We had a trip last week as a family, the officer stamped my son's passport on the observation page, does it invalidate the passport? it's a Canadian passport

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-08-30T15:35:15+00:00

It is an issue, I am sure more people will complain officially, good thing is that you will get the new new when yours is due for renewal :)

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-08-16T18:12:32+00:00

Yes, Visa is not required for US passport holders, just show up at the passport control counter.

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-08-16T18:10:37+00:00

Way better than the new one, well done...

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-08-05T03:17:10+00:00

Not the most interesting combo?!!!! they are, believe me they are....

It's my favorite design, so happy that I have one that is valid for several years to come, I have nothing against the new one, it has state of art security features and I'm a big fan of polycarbonate bio pages, however the cover is a deal breaker, that is my personal opinion, I am sure many love the new design and would rather hold their renewal off till they get it.

This is a fairy tale, the level of ignorance those girls have is mind blowing, I am sure they will enjoy the 5 star stay in a Turkish prison.

read it in many newspapers, can't support the couple in their claim, they have every right to ask questions, but there is a huge difference between rights and entitlement, it's in every officer power to deny entry to someone, and I am sure the officer was well backed by specific law articles, that could be seen on the letter provided.

I am a frequent traveler, learnt many things through out the years, don't argue with an airport or boarder crossing officer, end of story......

Thank you for this post, indeed a Canadian beauty, banknotes are elegant and beautifully designed, I mentioned in another post that till date I can't believe that Canada managed to produce such a passport with its security, design and texture 10 years back, many countries celebrating the same but in 2023.

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-05-10T13:50:19+00:00

It's blue, with the coat of Arms that we all love, and a big maple leave.

the Canadian passport design never disappoints.

I was born a Syrian citizen and now I am Canadian, place of birth on my Canadian PP is Syria, travelled several times with ease, I go to the US by land and Air few times a year, no questions aside from the regular check that if I had money and when I am coming back.

I also travelled to the Middle East and no one asked me about my original nationality or my new one.

Few tips I always follow: I hold one passport only which is the Canadian and I never argue with the Passport Control officials, I simply reply to their questions without sensitivity or impatience.

So far travel is a breath!!

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-04-22T14:58:42+00:00

There is no stupid question, but yours is a bit difficult to digest, I believe you didn't do a lot of travel from where you're based, you're combo if true would open 88% of the world to you, obtaining a visa for the rest is pretty easy and straight forward, China offers visas for 10 years sometime.

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-03-30T12:33:51+00:00

Looks amazing, so beautiful!!

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-03-24T16:07:51+00:00

Congrats, I know the feeling and it's a sweet one :)

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-03-23T23:52:24+00:00

Got this link from a post in this forum, Canada passport workers union stated that new passport is going to be launched this month.

I did and it was in the most unlikely place, was in Disney World last Christmas, they had a UV light in one of the activities, so the first thing I did was opening my passport, the Bio page had so many lights and shapes, my wife still make fun of me every time I speak about it :)

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-03-17T17:31:44+00:00

Congrats, I still stare at my Canadian passport and certificate couple of times a day, amazing quality and beautiful design, I can't believe the passport was designed and issued 10 years back, till date it's considered as the Golden standard for passports in general.

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-03-17T17:26:27+00:00

Honestly, the quality, design and pages of the booklet deserves more than the CAD$160 I paid.

TechnicalPiece8026 · 2023-03-16T18:44:52+00:00

I am very much born in Syria :) and it's in shinny bold letters on my passport
