Can Canadians still travel to India after suspension of visa services?

After Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced there was "credible" evidence that agents of the Indian government were responsible for the killing of B.C. Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June, India took retaliatory measures, including a visa services suspension as well as a travel advisory placed on Canada.

In 2021, 80,000 Canadians visited India. The season for travel to the country is underway, and the visa suspension has left Canadian travelers with a lot of questions. Can they still travel? How long will the suspension last?

“It is definitely impacting everyone, especially people who want to travel for health reasons, people who don’t have coverage here but want to go back to India for better service,” said Manbir Singh from outside an Indian visa office in Surrey.

India has vehemently rejected allegations of involvement in Nijjar’s murder, describing them as “absurd.” Both countries swiftly expelled diplomats from each other’s nations.
