Business visas can also provide new scope for immigrants looking for permanent residency in Canada to help create substantial economic growth.
In Canada, business visas are typically categorized under the Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) or Temporary Resident Permit (TRP) programs. Here are the main types of business-related visas available for individuals looking to conduct business activities in Canada:
Business Visitor Visa (Temporary Resident Visa - TRV):
This visa allows individuals to visit Canada for short-term business purposes, such as attending meetings, conferences, or negotiating contracts.
Business visitors are not allowed to engage in hands-on work or enter the Canadian labor market.
Investor Visa:
Canada offers several investor immigration programs, such as the Immigrant Investor Venture Capital (IIVC) Pilot Program and the Quebec Investor Program.
These programs typically require individuals to make a substantial investment in a Canadian business or government fund in exchange for permanent residency.
Entrepreneur Visa:
The Start-up Visa Program is designed for entrepreneurs who have a viable business idea and the support of a designated organization in Canada.
Successful applicants can obtain permanent residency by establishing their business in Canada and meeting certain requirements.
Intra-Company Transferee Visa:
This visa is for employees of multinational companies who are being transferred to a Canadian branch, subsidiary, or affiliate.
The Intra-Company Transferee category facilitates the temporary entry of skilled workers, executives, or managers to fulfill specific job roles.
Self-Employed Persons Visa:
Self-employed individuals in certain industries, such as arts and culture, athletics, or farming, may be eligible to apply for permanent residency under the Self-Employed Persons Program.
Applicants must demonstrate that they have relevant experience and the ability to be self-employed in Canada.
Work Permits for Business Professionals:
Certain professionals, such as consultants, executives, or specialized workers, may be eligible for a work permit to perform specific duties in Canada on a temporary basis.
Work permits may be issued under various categories, such as the NAFTA Professional (TN) category for citizens of the United States and Mexico, or the International Mobility Program (IMP) for individuals with job offers supported by a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) exemption.
It's essential to consult with a qualified immigration advisor or legal professional to determine the most suitable visa option based on your individual circumstances and business objectives. Additionally, immigration policies and program requirements may change, so it's advisable to refer to the latest information provided by Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
