TN Visa - Frequently Asked Question
Can I obtain my TN visa at the Pearson Airport in Toronto? Can you obtain the visa at an airport customs office or do you have to go to a landed border crossing? If you could respond as soon as possible I would greatly appreciate it since I need to book a plane ticket very soon.
Answer:
You can apply for your TN Visa at the Pearson Airport. They have a U.S. Customs Office with a pre-clearance location here which processes TN Visas.
Note: A pre-clearance location does not mean you can obtain your TN Visa earlier than your departure date. You will apply for your TN Visa at the pre-clearance location when you are departing for the U.S.
Other Canadian airports that you can apply at are listed here:
