Stay length verified against an official source The stay length was checked against official evidence. Sources are listed further down the page. ## How the count works for Canadians in Guatemala You may stay up to 90 days. The recorded maximum applies to the current stay. Stretch does not assume that leaving creates a fresh allowance; check the evidence, entry stamp and any re-entry conditions. Stretch sets your must-exit date the day you log the entry and reminds you at 14, 7, 3 and 1 days out. ## Before you fly Stretch publishes no independently sourced arrival card or application checklist for this route. Use the official check labelled in the sources section before travelling. ## Notes from the rulebook IGM visa classification: this country is in category A, exempt from a Guatemalan visa on an ordinary passport. Stay is up to 90 days (Reglamento de Visas Guatemaltecas art. 13, filed as a second record), extendable once by the same period. Guatemala is a CA-4 country: the 90 days is shared with El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua and does not restart at those borders. The rule model has no shared regional clock, so this rule counts Guatemala alone — a traveller circling the CA-4 will pass our arithmetic and fail Guatemala's. ## Sources - **Evidence for the rule:** Official: igm.gob.gt — checked 2026-08-22 - **Official check:** [igm.gob.gt](http://igm.gob.gt/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/MANUAL-CA4-Unificado-2.pdf), retrieved 2026-08-22 - **Official check:** [igm.gob.gt](https://igm.gob.gt/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/AAMM-No.-008-2023-Reglamento-de-Visas-Guatemaltecas_compressed.pdf), retrieved 2026-08-22 ## Questions Canadians ask about Guatemala **Can Canadians enter Guatemala without a visa?** Yes.
