Hi, I need to bring some money to Canada (roughly 20k) and someone will be coming from Bangladesh in visitor visa. I plan to request that person to bring that money while travelling. He will not declare the money when leaving Bangladesh thus the restrictions on Bangladeshi border we hope will not apply. He will declare the money when he enters Canada. I see when he enters Canada if it is less than 10k do not need to declare. He has to declare in a separate card if he is bringing more than 10k. Anyone or anyone you know did this while coming to Canada in Visitor visa? Does not has to be from Bangladesh. Any idea what questions (or documents) the border officers might ask about bringing this money.

More than 10k:

I’ve done it. Just a little over 10k, but not near 20k. I was just asked my purpose of bringing in the money, the currencies, the instrument, and the breakdown per currency.

So what will this person say if asked by CBSA if the money is their money ? Will the person say it is their money or your money ? It is a personal decision to ask someone else to bring in cash but how would this person feel if even a remote possibility the cash is confiscated, not saying would happen but what if ? That’s why electronic transfer is so much easier.

That is my savings which I left behind when I immigrated and now I need to bring it. Thus money laundering is out of question. Cannot do bank transfer from my country as that amount will not be allowed to transfer out. It is my dad who is coming and off course willing to declare it as his money.

Your father can bring the money. He CANNOT lie and say it is his. That is grounds for confiscation of the money and refusal of entry with a ban for your father. He must carry proof of where the money originated.

Don't post when you know nothing about the subject. It is well-known that many countries restrict money transfers. A simple Google search shows that Bangladesh is one such country.

It seems like the truth for your dad to bring the money is justified, and it’s not an alarming rate to be suspicious. I agree with canuck, he must not lie that it is his money. Bringing it over to you, a Canadian PR, physically in light of restrictions in Bangladesh is a valid reason, provided he is ready with the requisite proof (receipts, old statements, copy of your PR card, your contact details, etc.)

Thanks all for the help, as a matter of fact we found out Bangladesh border got much restricted lately and we decided not to take the risk of bringing anything more than they allow. However thanks for the help :)
