Beginning Sept. 30, Canadian citizens will no longer be allowed to board a flight to Canada using their foreign passport in combination with a citizenship card or a provincial driver’s license to confirm Canadian citizenship.从2016年9月30日开始,加拿大公民不再被允许使用外国护照和公民卡或省政府发行的驾照等确认自己的加拿大公民身份。
“A valid Canadian passport is the only reliable and universally accepted travel document that provides proof that you are a citizen and have the right to enter Canada without being subjected to immigration screening,” the Canadian government says, also reminding dual citizens that they ensure their passport doesn’t expire until “well beyond your planned return date.”“一本有效的加拿大护照是唯一可靠和被普遍接受的旅行证件,用来提供证据证明你是加拿大公民并且有权利不必通过入境检查即可入境。”加拿大政府说,同时也提醒那些拥有双重国籍的人要确定自己的护照不会在计划出行日期过期。
Canadians can renew their Canadian passport if their current passport is valid or expired for no more than one year, reflects the same name, sex, date of birth and place of birth that you would like to appear on your new passport, was issued to be valid for 5 or 10 years, has not been reported lost or stolen, and was issued when the traveler was at least 16 years of age.在加拿大护照仍然有效或一年内即将过期,签发时具备5年或10年有效期,没有报失或被盗并且签发时旅行者年满16周岁,则加拿大人可以更新自己的护照。所申请护照必须要和当前护照反映同一姓名,性别,出生日期和出生地点。
In addition, permanent residents of Canada are required to obtain a valid Permanent Resident Card, or a Travel Document, as well as their passport, in order to board a plane to Canada.此外,加拿大永久居民须要持有效永久居民卡或旅行证件(即返加签证)还有护照,才可以登上飞往加拿大的航班。
