⚠️ Key Rule
Canada requires Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) for visa-free travelers. Apply online before flying.
Viisa ≠ sisenemine. Viisa lubab ainult pardale ja taotleda — piirivalvur otsustab, kes sisse lastakse, ja nõuab tõendit lahkumise kohta. FlightProofi väljuv pilet on see tõend: üks maailma odavamaid tõendeid edasireisi kohta — sinu marsruudi madalaim hind. Väljastatakse alla minutiga. Läbi piirikontrolli ja naudi viisat.

Why airlines refuse boarding without an onward ticket
Flying to a high-risk country? The airline — not immigration — checks you before boarding, and it will not board you even when you never show a "when is your return flight" ticket at the border. The reservation out is exactly what we confirm: any route out, on the date you choose — that's it. Immigration passed: how long you stay depends on the entry stamp you receive.
Officer: “When is your return flight?”
You: “In two weeks — here is the booking.”
Stamp. Entry granted. That was the only question, and you had the answer ready.
Win-win: you buy a ticket out just to come in, you never fly it, and there is nothing to cancel afterwards — no fare held, no refund to chase. The officer gets a straight answer; you keep your plans.

Kus küsitakse tõendit edasisõidu kohta
Lennufirma töötajad näevad rahvusvahelist piletit ja kontrollivad tavaliselt enne pardakaardi väljastamist tõendit edasisõidu kohta.
Mõnes väravas kontrollitakse reisidokumente uuesti — valmis pilet hoiab ära korduskontrolli ja viivitused.
Rändeametnikud võivad küsida, kuidas ja millal te riigist lahkute.
Mõnes saabumisviisa letis küsitakse riigist väljumise piletit sisenõuete osana.

Why You Need an Onward Ticket for Canada
Canada has strict enforcement of onward travel requirements. Immigration at major airports checks for proof of departure. All airlines verify at check-in too.
If you arrive without proof of onward travel, you may face:
- Denied boarding by the airline at your departure airport
- Secondary inspection at immigration, causing delays of 1–4 hours
- Denied entry and placement on the next available return flight (at your expense)
- Visa cancellation or a re-entry ban in serious cases
- Shorter stay granted (e.g., 15 days instead of 30)
FlightProof provides instant onward tickets that satisfy both airline check-in systems and immigration requirements worldwide. Your booking comes with a PNR-style booking reference and itinerary PDF delivered to your email within minutes.
