The ICT Start-Up visa program is a great option for international companies seeking to establish a presence in North America.

Foreign businesses wishing to establish a Canadian enterprise may use the ICT Start-Up Visa program to bring key workers to the country to open a new office and begin doing business.

When applying for an ICT Start-Up visa, applicants must demonstrate their company’s ability to become established in Canada. They will have to provide evidence of their ability to finance start-up operations, as well as outline plans for staffing and doing business in Canada. Applicants must prove that they are in the process of securing physical premises.

It is important to demonstrate that those individuals who are transferred to Canada are truly a benefit to the Canadian economy, and that they possess critical knowledge that is essential to start-up operations.
