US Citizens Entering Canada

www.consular.canada.usembassy.gov/enter_canada.asp

As of June 1, 2009, everyone from every country that comes to Canada by air, land and sea needs a passport or equivalent travel document.

Before June 1, 2009, U.S. citizens do not necessarily need a passport entering Canada by land or sea, but need valid ID that proves identity and citizenship.

Currently, everyone arriving in Canada by air needs a passport or equivalent travel document, such as a NEXUS Card.

Wait Times

The average wait time at most US-Canada borders is approximately 5 minutes. Longer wait times can occur specially during peak tourist season.
