Can you travel outside Canada and comeback before PR card is mailed?

[Diaboluce]

planning to travel around 1st week of April and I don't think (of course 8)) my PR card will be delivered by then..


is there any problem with travelling before you get the PR card? (just bringing COPR docs after you landed)



thank you for helps

Are you visa-exempt?

If you are, then you can travel to Canada on the strength of your passport as if you are a visitor. You can then present yourself to CBSA as a PR without issue.

If you are not, then you will not be able to board a commercial carrier (plane, ferry, bus) without a PR card or a PRTD. Alternatively, you can enter at a Canada-US land border by non-commercial means.
