Employment


In general, international students cannot work in Canada. However, there are a few provisions that can allow them to work. First, they can secure a work permit for employment at the institution they are attending. Second, after graduation students are allowed to work in Canada for one year in the discipline they have studied.

The Canadian government places no restrictions on a reasonable quantity of clothing, books, and other items for personal use. However, only limited amounts of commodities are allowed into Canada. Detailed information about Canada’s Customs Regulations can be obtained from any Canadian Embassy or Consulate.
