Does the COPR have a validity date?

Hi All. Does the COPR have a validity date? Or it can be used repeatedly to enter Canada by road from the US till your PR Cards arrive? What is the VALID TO date that is printed on the COPR?

That date is the date by which you must complete your initial landing else the COPR is no longer valid for initial entry.

Sure you can present a COPR post landing at a land border on the understanding it is not a regular travel document , it just shows CBSA that you have previously landed as a PR.

Depends as well by what you mean enter repeatedly given using a COPR for repeated land border crossings is not what it is intended for and at some point I guess could come under some additional scrutiny so advisable to be prepared to show If asked that you have PR card application in process.

If you are a freshly landed PR it's unlikely to be a problem but if you are waiting on PR card renewal, it may well lead to deeper scrutiny of your RO compliance and why you are not in possession of a renewed card.

Hello. If initial PR card is not come & person has to leave Canada, can COPR be used to re-enter Canada by road in a private vehicle multiple times? Of course, once the PR card come, COPR is not useful.
