Hello.
If entering canada as a visitor. In the application mentioned amount of money will bring.
should i actually bring it in cash or its ok to have it in my debit or credit card.
can i withdraw it at the airport ATM if asked for that?

You don’t need to bring cash. You can just bring a debit or credit card. Or withdraw at airport.

Thanks for reply.. my concern is this enough to satisfy the question of the immigration officer..
Not having the same amount declared in the application as actual cash but accessible with cards.

Thanks again

Hello dear,

I went for a 2 months visit and just came back.. i answered the officer uppon asking that i carry cash (less than declaredin the application) but have access to my debit and credit cards (more than declared amount) and it was ok. I could withdraw from airport ATMs if needed.

Most importantly is cash to be declared if above the limits of 10k i guess.

Good luck
