Customs: When students enter Canada for the first time, they have to go to the customs to change their study permits. After presenting the following documents, the customs staff will make a student's study permit and stick it on the passport.
1. Passport
2. Customs letters
3. Admission notice (it is best to prepare high school or university transcripts at the same time)
Customs officials usually ask simple questions, such as name, date of birth or which school they go to. Just get ready in advance.
The above things also need to be provided at the time of enrollment registration report.
Take a pen and notebook. You need to fill out a camera entry form on the plane. There is a Chinese version, asking if you have any contraband, meat, fruit and other questions.
Project category:
For the first time, international students can carry two pieces of checked baggage weighing no more than 23 kilograms, and each accompanying parent can only carry one piece of checked baggage. If you are overweight, you need to pay more. The weight of the suitcase must be light, the surface must be smooth, the bottom wheel should be flexible and the steering ability should be strong. It is recommended to have multiple rows of wheels and rubber wheels with coded locks. The 28-inch suitcase needs to be checked, and the sum of the three sides should not exceed 158 cm. Each passenger can carry one piece of hand luggage (no more than 10 kg) and one piece with a volume of no more than 20? 40? 55 cm (the sum of three sides shall not exceed 1 15 cm). At the same time, you can take a small backpack with you. Charging treasure and food are not allowed to be taken on the plane and need to be checked. This is a special idea. Below I list some important baggage categories for your reference.
1. Drugs: General Chinese patent medicines are hard to buy abroad. It is recommended to bring some cold medicines, stomach medicines, antipyretics, antidiarrheal medicines, throat tablets, painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs, eye drops, Huoxiang Zhengqi (acclimatized) and Niuhuang Jiedu (clearing fire). There are also medical cotton, gauze, adhesive tape, band-aid and so on. It is forbidden to carry Chinese herbal medicines. The customs will selectively open the checked baggage of international students when taking photos at the entrance. If you carry Chinese herbal medicines, it will be unlucky to be confiscated. Because the air in foreign countries is good and there are few cold viruses, the chances of catching a cold are generally low, so it is not recommended to bring too many drugs.
2. Bedding: In fact, all major shopping malls abroad sell bedding, and students can get their luggage after entering the mirror. Students are not advised to bring too many quilts and pillows. But if there are students who can only sleep on buckwheat skin pillows or need to cover with special quilts, they need to bring them.
3. Food: It is generally forbidden to bring meat and fruit into the mirror. If you don't open it, there will be no problem. If it is not packaged, it may be confiscated. You can take a pair of chopsticks and a spoon with you if necessary. General kitchenware, spices, etc. They are sold in supermarkets in China, so you don't need to bring them extra.
4. Clothes: large down jackets and cotton-padded clothes can be packed in vacuum bags to save space. Take as few clothes as possible. After going out, you will find that all kinds of brand-name clothes are very cheap during the discount period, which must be better than the clothes you brought back from China. Boys need to prepare a suit, and girls had better prepare a dress as equipment for various formal occasions or ceremonies.
5. Skin care products and cosmetics: If it is a Japanese and Korean brand, you should bring some, but European and American brands don't need to bring them at all. Airport duty-free shops and foreign pharmacies sell cheaper than domestic ones.
6. Other necessities: Bring the charger charging cable of 3C products such as mobile phones, and it is best to bring the charging treasure. Take a water cup and a folding umbrella with you. Girls need to bring physical hygiene products. Boys can bring a manual razor, and electric razors can also be bought abroad. If boys have confidence in their haircut level, they can also bring a haircut clipper. Glasses and contact lenses need to be worn more. Foreign glasses are more expensive.
7. small gifts: you can bring some small gifts to foreign teachers and classmates, which don't need to be expensive. Chinese knot, Chinese paper-cut, craft fan, facial makeup, small clay figurine, silk scarf, tea, etc. As long as it can reflect the cultural characteristics of China.
File category:
According to the requirements of colleges and universities, students generally need to prepare the following documents as registration materials.
1. Original or photocopy of the admission notice
2. Passport
Step 3 copy
4. Photos (please prepare the electronic version as a template for making student cards)
5. Original, photocopy and electronic version of IELTS or TOEFL transcripts (please bring them)
6. Driver's license (if you bring it)
7. Obtained vaccine records (applicable to public high school enrollment) or vaccine certificates issued by designated medical institutions (applicable to private high school enrollment).
Money and electronic equipment
1. Money: No one on the plane can carry more than $5,000 in cash with him. It is better to bring $65,438+0,500. Prepare some small bills and steel jumps. The trolley at the airport needs to be put into use for 25 cents.
2. Bank card: Generally, it is not necessary to apply for a credit card from China. If parents are really uneasy, they can go to the bank to apply for a sub-mother card with a main card and a sub-card. Generally, I suggest that students find the nearest bank to the school or host family to apply for debit cards and credit cards after logging in. It takes about 45 minutes to open a card for the first time in Canada. When you open a current account in a bank, you can get the bank card on the spot and choose the password, so that you can use it at the ATM, and you can operate the savings account and checking account. ATM is not a simple ATM, but it can be used for withdrawal, deposit and inquiry. Personal daily banking business generally does not need to go to the bank counter. Bank cards are used free of charge at all ATMs in the banking system.
Bank cards can not only be used at ATMs, but also be accepted by most shopping malls as debit cards. At that time, the payment was made from your account, so it was also called debit card. (Note that this is not the same as a credit card. Students under 19 cannot apply for a credit card. Most bank cards have a one-day limit, for example, the total amount of withdrawals and expenditures made by the card can not exceed 600 dollars a day. This limit has nothing to do with your deposit, but to protect you from too much loss in case of losing your card or being bullied by gangsters. There are two kinds of current accounts: savings accounts and checking accounts. Savings accounts usually have higher interest to save money that is not used in the short term. A checking account is for daily life, and the money in the account may be spent at any time, so the interest is very low or even non-existent. Both are current deposits. At the same time, you can buy a check with the bank's opening bank and address, the name and address of the head of the household, the account number and the check number printed on it; The blanks left include: date, amount (Arabic numerals), amount (English characters), payee's name, drawer's signature and remarks. Before a new checking account can print a check, the bank will give the customer a temporary check of 8- 10, and then the customer will order his own checkbook.
3. Mobile phone and mobile phone card: Pick up the plane locally or go to the camera with your parents, and you don't need to carry a sim card or handle international roaming. Just go to the phone company to get a card when you arrive. You can also buy a Canadian calling card at home and make a phone call when you get off the plane.
4. Computer: The average student asks me if I want to take a computer abroad, and I will sayno. First of all, the power interface abroad is different from that in China. The computer brought from China needs to be plugged in to connect the power cord. Secondly, there are many kinds of computers abroad, and they are generally cheaper than those at home. Buying an Acer in Taiwan Province is lower than the domestic price. Thirdly, there are public computers everywhere in the school, which are convenient to query and use. Students can browse the electronic products market after entering the mirror to see what kind and brand of computers they need most, and then buy them. It is more cost-effective to buy a computer at the student's price during school. A removable hard disk with large memory and several small USB flash drives.
The above is an introduction to the list of entry projects for studying in Canada. I hope I can help you.
