Keep in mind this decision to reverse is ONLY applicable for those TRANSITING (changing planes) at the airport. If you leave the airport, you need to apply for ETA.

- Is required for travelers of all ages.
- Is valid for two years or the remaining period of validity on a passport, whichever is shorter; and
- Does not require travel details.
