Eswatini visa for Canadian passport holders
Canadian passport holders don't need a visa for Eswatini
Visa-free stays are up to 30 days. Longer stays, work and study usually need a visa.
Heads up: Eswatini's eVisa portal says that if your country isn't on its list of nationalities that need a visa, you don't need one; visas cover stays up to a month and a yellow fever certificate is only needed if you pass through a yellow fever area first. We couldn't read the list itself, so check evisa.gov.sz for your passport.
What you'll typically need
- A passport valid for at least six months from the day you arrive, with blank pages
- Proof of onward or return travel
- A yellow fever vaccination certificate — many African countries ask for it, especially if you've been in an affected country
Typical requirements, not a guarantee — the destination decides.

Questions
Do Canadian citizens need a visa for Eswatini?
Canadian passport holders don't need a visa for Eswatini. Visa-free stays are up to 30 days. Longer stays, work and study usually need a visa. Confirm on Eswatini eVisa portal (Ministry of Home Affairs) before you pay or book, because entry rules change.
Should I use an agent to get a Eswatini visa?
Only if you want someone to handle the paperwork for you. Government fees are the same whether or not you use an agent, and agents add their own fee on top — sometimes more than the visa itself. Check that the government fee is listed separately and avoid agents who ask for payment to a personal account.
