The PRTD allows permanent residents to re-enter Canada as proof of their status while their PR Card application is being processed or if they have lost their PR Card. It is typically valid for one entry and is intended for short-term use until the individual can obtain a new PR Card or resolve their immigration status.
To apply for a PRTD, permanent residents can submit an application to Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) along with the required supporting documents.
When boarding a flight to Canada or traveling to Canada on any other commercial airline, permanent residents (PR) of Canada must have their valid permanent resident card (PR card) or permanent resident travel document (PRTD) with them.
You might not be allowed to board your airline, train, bus, or boat to Canada if you don’t have your PR card or PRTD.
If you are a permanent resident who is currently living outside of Canada and needs to travel back to Canada, use this application.
If you’re traveling in a private vehicle such as a car, truck, motorcycle, or recreational vehicle that you own, borrow, or rent, you can use your PR card, PRTD, or other documents to return to Canada.
