What Does a Canadian Visa Cost and Its Validity

The cost of a Canada Visit Visa from Dubai is AED 1,500, and the visa is valid for ten years. Each visit to Canada during the period allows you to stay for a maximum of six months

The eTA is valid for five years, with each stay allowing you to stay in the country for up to six months.
