I was a bit worried as I am travelling on immigrant visa for the first time. Thanks again !
no u need a visa if u want to leave the air port....if u want to exit air port u will have to go through immigration and customs.dubaitotoronto said:I think we dont need a transit visa even if we go out of the airport if we have a connection flight within 24 hours.
