Hi,

I'm a PhD student from the UK, coming to a conference relating to my research area in August (The IUCr in Montreal) - what kind of visa do I need to attend? Is this classed as business?

Thanks very much,

Keated

What's the nationality of your passport?

You are from a visa-exempt country, you don't need a visa.
 
Alright, so, scientific conference isn't classified as business, so I don't need a visa, correct?

Thanks for your help :D

Even if it was, business and turism are allowed as part of a visit.
