Many people should be aware that Chinese citizens holding a United States visa can travel to 13 countries and regions without a visa. But did you also know that there is another visa that is equally competitive with the US visa? It allows for multiple entries over ten years and visa-free access to 10 countries and regions. That visa is the Canadian visa.
Canada, like the United States, is part of the American continent, and naturally, the value of this ten-year visa is not inferior to that of the US. The most crucial point is that there is no need for an interview to apply for a Canadian visa (except for consulate random checks or special requirements), which greatly simplifies the application process. Holding a valid Canadian visa for ten years, one can enter countries including the Philippines, Honduras, Dominican Republic, South Korea, and other 10 countries without a visa!
(1) Philippines: 7 days visa-free stay
(2) Honduras: 30 days visa-free stay
(3) Dominican Republic: 30 days visa-free stay
(4) Bermuda: 180 days visa-free stay
(5) South Korea: 30 days visa-free transit stay
The transit visa-free destination for South Korea must be Canada, and entry is allowed once for each round trip.
(6) Singapore: 96 hours visa-free transit stay
A validity period of at least one month is required, and only one entry is allowed for round trips.
(7) Costa Rica: 30 days visa-free stay
Must hold a multiple-entry Canadian visa, and the stay cannot exceed the visa validity period.
(8) Panama: 30 days visa-free stay
A used Canadian visa is required.
(9) Turkish e-Visa
A valid Canadian visa is required for entry.
(10) Chile: 90 days visa-free stay
Those holding a valid Canadian visa or valid US visa (excluding transit visas) for 6 months or more can enter Chile without a visa, with a maximum stay of no more than 90 days. This policy has been in effect since July 1, 2015.
Note:
The validity of a Canadian visa can last up to 10 years but cannot exceed the passport's validity. If the passport has a shorter validity period, it is advisable to renew the passport before applying for a Canadian visa.
The reciprocity policy applies only to short-term visitor visas for stays not exceeding 180 days; those coming to Canada for study or work are not included in this visa arrangement.
