It usually takes 4-6 weeks (20-30 business days) to get a new one in Canada, so it is recommended to arrange the procedure in advance. However, there are times when we have to take an urgent or unscheduled trip and hence in need of getting passports as soon as possible. In this case, applicants could request for <strong>Canada passport urgent <\/strong>service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we are going to introduce an overall instruction. Most importantly, getting an <strong>urgent passport<\/strong> means saving time in each step, especially the passport photos and we have found the best solution to save time in queues and the trouble of compliance verification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Types Of Expedited Passport Canada<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are 2 types of expedited passports with shorter processing time than standard ones in Canada: urgent service and express service, which features different processing time and documents. Both of them are only available in passport offices instead of service center. Applicants must fulfill the application at the counter. It is suggested to make an online reservation during peak seasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The process goes the same either for adults or children. Make sure you have understood that extra fees will be charged for emergency services which are specified later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Urgent Service<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Canada passport urgent<strong> <\/strong>service is established for Canadian citizens who would like to travel overseas without delay. The passport would be issued in 2 business days. In this case, travelers must provide proof of travel in the upcoming 48 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Express Service<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who are not planning an urgent trip in 2 days but still don&#8217;t want to wait for so long to get a passport could choose express service, which guarantees the issuance in 10 business days. The reservation service is available on government website by filling out a form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Differing from an urgent service, proof of travel is not mandatory for express service, but the officer might still ask for the reason for obtaining an emergency passport in some circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Get Urgent Passport in Canada?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The process of getting an <strong>urgent passport<\/strong> is similar to that of a standard one. First of all, make sure you are eligible for application. Then visit a department that handle urgent issues and do as the offices said. Finally, wait for your passport after payment. Next let\u2019s go through the requirements, processing time, locations and cost first. Make sure to double-check your documents no matter how urgent it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Requirements of Urgent Passport Canada<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To obtain an urgent passport, applicants must proof that their trip is definitely urgent. There are some extra documents required compared with the standard application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Documents for Canada Passport Urgent<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The requirements are listed as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Evidence of Canadian citizenship, such as birth or citizenship certificate (original copy)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Current passport or travel document within validity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Proof of travel within 48 hours (See in next section)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 Identical passport photos (with signature or stamp of date &amp; studio name or the guarantor&#8217;s statement on the back of 1 photo according to the official passport photo requirements)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 references (someone who has known you for more than 2 years; not your family)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Proofs of Travel for Canada Passport Urgent<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Any of the following is acceptable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tickets for any kind of transportation such as airplanes, trains or buses<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Written declaration for self-driving<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Verified payment for travel plan<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Proof of immediate travel for the purpose of medical treatment, visiting, etc<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Places of Urgent Passport Canada<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Both Service Canada Centre and Passport Canada Office deal with passport services, but only the latter processes urgent applications. The locations across Canada are listed as follows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

the end of the next business day once the application is accepted. Emergencies might happen every now and then. The authority does not guarantee to issue the passport in time once there are any security concerns or incomplete forms. What if I have to travel right now during the holidays? Will it be possible for the authority to deal with my request on the weekend or statutory holidays? The answer is yes and you must also provide proof of the must-do travel over the specific weekend or holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cost of Expedited passport Canada<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Applying for an urgent passport would cost much more than a regular one.

I guess you would absolutely don&#8217;t want to waste time on passport photos. In order to take a qualified picture as quickly as possible, we would introduce<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aipassportphotos.com\/en-ca\"> AiPassportPhotos<\/a>, an online photo verification and editing tool, available on either computers, mobile phones or tablets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The whole process requires only 4 steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(1) Upload the photo you have. The algorithm will determine whether the photo is compliant by scanning the face, outfits, posture and photo quality. If the photo does not comply with the official standard, you can replace it as soon as it informs you of the results within seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(2) If the photo is acceptable, it will help you modify background and crop to specified size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(3) Save the template for printout. You can bring it to physical stores to print out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(4) Cut out each photo and take it to the Passport Canada Office.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/6yk4d_ZWZtTKNSmLyEZlMkcGAWGgno6CuVvqVS7wEjTVCq4TajqsJcbeRLwLxewqTx6km-31J9HWdX54kkaGuAP-3RubT8_JMsMavMqOhLnazHkvOmkRXp2TxOAnIZj4hT5gzRGST5W6BXDMYQ1xJ_A\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s all about the ultimate guide to getting urgent passport Canada.
