Official Travel
Official Travel issues and safeguards special and diplomatic passports, and provides a visa service for those travelling on official government business.
Canada Post services across Canada may be affected by ongoing delays in service from continued labour negotiations.
Our processes will be unaffected though you may experience delays in:
- sending applications mailed within or to Canada
- receiving mail from us
Apply for an official passport in person at the Official Travel office, or send your application by courier or messenger.
Visit Canada Post for more information before sending any application by mail. We’ll keep you updated as we learn more.
This section contains information for representatives of the Government of Canada, and people travelling on Government of Canada-related business.
