General Letter of Invitation from Canadian Citizen or Permanent Resident
The ideal person to provide your Letter of Invitation depends on the reason for your visit to Canada:
The invitation letter should be written by a Permanent resident or Canadian citizen and can be issued for friends and family members.

Information that should be included in the letter?
- Essential details about both the visa applicant and the inviter.
- A photocopy of a document proving their status in Canada (e.g., Canadian birth certificate, Canadian citizenship card, or proof of permanent residency).
- An explanation of the purpose for the trip to Canada.
- Details of the planned duration of stay in Canada.
- Accommodation details (where they will stay).
- How they will cover expenses during their stay.
- Planned departure date from Canada.

Additional Considerations
- Note that merely writing a letter of invitation does not make the inviter legally responsible for the visitor once they arrive in Canada.
- The letter should be written in good faith, with truthful information.
- The letter should be notarized in front of a notary.
- The visitor must submit this letter along with their visa application to the Canadian embassy or consulate outside of Canada.
