Entry details
Holders of a Venezuela passport need a visa obtained in advance when visiting Canada. The Venezuela passport currently ranks #87 of 199 worldwide, with 112 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.
Canada is relatively guarded about who it admits, admitting 53 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #25 with 161 open destinations. As fellow Americas countries, their rules are frequently tied to regional arrangements. The arrangement is reciprocal — Canada citizens face the same visa required requirement in the other direction.
In the opposite direction, Canada citizens travelling to Venezuela face: visa required.
