Work permits & eligibility
Tourist entry is not work authorisation. Start with the route that fits your passport, age, student status, employer and exact type of work before paying for travel.
Canada: IEC
International Experience Canada includes Working Holiday, Young Professionals and International Co-op categories. Eligibility, age limit, quota and permit duration depend on citizenship; the 2026 season is open.

Jobs outside IEC may require an employer-specific permit or another authorised route. A vacancy on Job Bank is not, by itself, proof that an employer can hire a foreign worker.
