          You would need to apply for a visa:




          Most refugees or stateless people need a visa to travel to Canada




          You would still need to meet the basic requirements (and having a refugee travel document would not, in itself, disqualify you from being granted a visa):




          Basic travel requirements



          You must meet some basic requirements to travel to Canada. You must:



          • have a valid travel document, like a passport

          • be in good health

          • have no criminal or immigration-related convictions

          • convince an immigration officer that you have ties—such as a job, home, financial assets or family—that will take you back to your home country

          • convince an immigration officer that you will leave Canada at the end of your visit

          • have enough money for your stay. The amount of money you will need depends on how long you will stay and if you will stay in a hotel, or with friends or relatives.

          You may also need a medical exam and letter of invitation from someone who lives in Canada.



          Some people are not admissible to Canada, which means they are not allowed to enter the country.
