I am a refugee and I need to travel outside Canada. What documents do I need to travel?

To apply, you will need to give Passport Canada proof of your status in Canada. You will need either:

If you are a Convention refugee, you should have a letter from the IRB . If you need to replace a lost letter, please contact the IRB .

If you are a protected person who was selected overseas and resettled as a refugee in Canada, you should have either a Confirmation of Permanent Residence document, or a Permanent Resident Card. If you need to replace an expired, lost or stolen Permanent Resident Card, you can apply for a new one.

If you are a protected person with a positive Pre-Removal Risk Assessment ( PRRA ) decision, you should have a VOS . If your PRRA result was before December 17, 2012, and you did not get a VOS , or if you lost it, you can apply for a new one.
