Hello,

I will be traveling to Canada and doing my first landing soon.
Wanted to check in terms of the proof of funds upon landing, does it necessarily need to be an official statement from the bank, or it is possible that I show them the account information from my phone (via the bank app) or just printed from the app?

Would appreciate your feedback.

If you are from Lebanon you need proof of accessible liquid funds. If you have proof of online banking from a bank in Lebanon most funds are not actually accessible. If these funds are not in Lebanon would have proof of statement (usually monthly) can be online and proof of bank balance.

Obviously not.. eventually I will need to use that money, so of course it’s an accessible liquid account.
Anyways, the bank is not in Lebanon and I do have the option of printing an e-statement.
The question remains, can I do that, or do I need to get an official statement from the bank?

e-statements should be fine.
