Trans travel advisory

Foreign laws and customs related to sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and sex characteristics SOGIESC can be very different from those in Canada. As a result, you could face certain barriers and risks when you travel outside Canada. Research and prepare for your trip in advance to help your travels go smoothly. Visit the Travel Advice and Advisories pages for your destination countries.

This is a message to all trans people currently outside the United States and in particular to trans Canadians : you should avoid non-essential travel to the United States — regardless of the reason for which you may need to step inside the country. Trans people who still may need to travel to, transit through or immigrate to the United States should exercise a very high degree of caution. A regional advisory also applies to the states of Florida and Texas : avoid all travel. This is not a state-issued travel advisory.
