STEPS TO TAKE FROM ABROAD

Before anything else, it’s essential to learn about the procedures required by both the federal and provincial governments. Here are a few key steps you should be aware of before arriving in Quebec.

ACCOMMODATION

To ensure a smooth arrival, it’s important to plan your accommodation and have enough financial resources for your first month in Quebec. Whether you’re staying with family, friends, or in a short-term rental like an Airbnb, make sure you have a place to stay lined up before you arrive!

ARRIVAL AT THE AIRPORT

An immigration officer will greet you at the airport to validate your entry into Canada. Ensure you have all the necessary documents upon arrival and a plan for reaching your destination. Plan to spend a few hours at the airport before you can leave.
