Features & Capabilities

ArriveCAN Advance CBSA Declaration lets international air travellers answer customs and immigration questions up to 72 hours before flying into Canada. Submitting in advance can reduce time at primary inspection kiosks (PIK) or eGates, speeding your arrival.

At the border, you’ll scan your travel document, confirm your identity, and review/certify your declaration. Use of this feature is optional. The app supports English, French, and Spanish based on your device language settings, and includes accessibility notices for ArriveCAN.

User Reviews

Reviewers generally praise ArriveCAN as easy to use, fast, and travel-friendly, with clear guidance and useful features for entering Canada and preparing required documents. The strongest positive themes are ease of use, speed, and a well-designed workflow. However, recurring issues include passport scanning problems requiring manual entry, authentication setbacks and slow or failed logins, and occasional app instability such as freezes or glitches on certain screens. Overall, most users find it helpful and well designed, but reliability around scanning and sign-in needs improvement.
Pros
  • Very easy to use and navigate.
  • Speeds up entry into Canada and makes the process quick.
  • Helpful features (passport scanning, completing required documents, calculating length of stay) and clear guidance.
  • Overall design is thoughtful and travel-friendly, with a well-designed workflow.
Cons
  • Passport scanning can fail or require manual entry (glare, failed scans, etc.).
  • Login/authentication issues (unable to sign in, password reset not sent).
  • Occasional instability and glitches (date picker freezes, arrival screen glitches).

You get one attempt to get the date and time right. If you have to switch to a different screen to check the terminal or the arrival time then the app will not get past the screen
