The following information applies to an intra-company transferee seeking to enter Canada.

If you are a national of a country whose citizens require a temporary resident visa (click on this link to view the list) then you should include your passport when submitting your documentation. If you do not require a visa, a photocopy will suffice.

All applicants must submit the following documents to the High Commission:

2.  Processing Fee - Basic fee $150 per application for work permit. See the FEES page for full information on the processing fees which apply to you.

RECEIVER GENERAL FOR CANADA

Please write your name and address and telephone number on the reverse of your bank draft.

We can only accept a bankers draft in Canadian Dollars or postal orders in UK pounds sterling for applications made in person at our office for Work Permits.  No cash will be accepted.

This fee is non-refundable regardless of the outcome of your application.
