\nStarting April 11, 2025<\/strong>, all Canadians staying 30 days or more<\/strong> in the United States will be required to register with U.S. authorities.<\/em>
\n<\/b><\/b> <\/p>\n
What Travelers Need to Know<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n- Travelers arriving by air or sea<\/strong> automatically receive an electronic I-94 upon arrival.<\/li>\n
- Travelers entering by land<\/strong> must apply in advance<\/strong> to obtain the I-94 form, which is not issued automatically<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
If You\u2019re Driving to the U.S. for 30 Days or More<\/strong><\/h2>\n <\/p>\n
\nBefore Departure: I-94 Application (Recommended)<\/strong><\/h4>\nYou can easily apply online for your I-94 within 7 days prior<\/strong> to your border crossing: I-94 \u2013 Apply Now<\/strong><\/a>. A US $30 fee<\/strong> applies for each application.
\n<\/b><\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\nAt the Border<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n- Whether or not you have completed the form beforehand, you can\u00a0ask the border officer<\/strong>\u00a0to issue your I-94 upon arrival.<\/li>\n
- Please note that, based on recent reports, officers may,\u00a0at their discretion, perform additional checks such as\u00a0fingerprinting<\/strong>*\u00a0and photo capture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
*Canadians are officially exempt from these procedures, but some travelers have reported that officers still request them. It may be difficult to refuse cooperation at the border, so we recommend remaining polite and honest with officers.<\/em> Anyone concerned about this procedure should request that their U.S. entry application be withdrawn and ask for permission to return to their home or original departure point.<\/em>
\n<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n<\/h3>\nOnce You\u2019re in the United States<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n- Check that your electronic I-94 has been issued through the CBP One\u2122<\/strong><\/a> or visit: Get Most Recent I-94<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n
- Print it \u2014 you have 30 days<\/strong> to do so.<\/li>\n
- Keep multiple copies<\/strong> for each family member (on you, at home, and in your vehicle).<\/li>\n
- If no I-94 has been issued: you must then complete your registration with Form G-325R<\/strong> through USCIS<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Helpful Tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n- To comply with the new rules, it is highly recommended to apply for your I-94 before entering the U.S.<\/strong>, to avoid having to complete the G-325R<\/strong>, which is longer, more intrusive, and more complex.<\/li>\n
- Every foreign national must be able to always present proof of registration.<\/strong><\/li>\n
- If you leave the U.S.<\/strong>, even for a few hours, you will need to repeat the registration process (I-94 or G-325R)<\/strong> upon re-entering by land if you plan to stay 30 days or more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Who Needs to Register?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n- Travelers aged 14 and over <\/strong>staying more than 30 days.<\/li>\n
- Parents or guardians of children under 14<\/strong> who are not registered<\/li>\n
- Anyone entering by land<\/strong> who does not automatically receive an I-94.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
What Happens If You Don\u2019t Register<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n- Denial of entry<\/strong> to the U.S. on a future trip.<\/li>\n
- Shortened authorized stay.<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Penalties <\/strong>may include fines, travel bans, or other serious consequences.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Quick Summary<\/strong><\/h2>\nThese new requirements represent a change<\/strong> for all Canadians aged 14 and over who are planning an extended stay in the United States. By applying for your I-94<\/strong>\u00a0or confirming its issuance when crossing the border, and printing your document within 30 days, you\u2019ll avoid complications<\/strong> and travel with peace of mind<\/strong>.<\/p>\nFor more information and official instructions: Entry and registration procedures in the United States are subject to regular updates.

*Canadians are officially exempt from these procedures, but some travelers have reported that officers still request them. It may be difficult to refuse cooperation at the border, so we recommend remaining polite and honest with officers.<\/em> Anyone concerned about this procedure should request that their U.S. entry application be withdrawn and ask for permission to return to their home or original departure point.<\/em>
\n<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n<\/h3>\nOnce You\u2019re in the United States<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n- Check that your electronic I-94 has been issued through the CBP One\u2122<\/strong><\/a> or visit: Get Most Recent I-94<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n

- If no I-94 has been issued: you must then complete your registration with Form G-325R<\/strong> through USCIS<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Helpful Tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n- To comply with the new rules, it is highly recommended to apply for your I-94 before entering the U.S.<\/strong>, to avoid having to complete the G-325R<\/strong>, which is longer, more intrusive, and more complex.<\/li>\n
- Every foreign national must be able to always present proof of registration.<\/strong><\/li>\n
- If you leave the U.S.<\/strong>, even for a few hours, you will need to repeat the registration process (I-94 or G-325R)<\/strong> upon re-entering by land if you plan to stay 30 days or more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Who Needs to Register?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n- Travelers aged 14 and over <\/strong>staying more than 30 days.<\/li>\n
- Parents or guardians of children under 14<\/strong> who are not registered<\/li>\n
- Anyone entering by land<\/strong> who does not automatically receive an I-94.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
What Happens If You Don\u2019t Register<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n- Denial of entry<\/strong> to the U.S. on a future trip.<\/li>\n
- Shortened authorized stay.<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Penalties <\/strong>may include fines, travel bans, or other serious consequences.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
