Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations r 166 Canada Compilation: 2026-03-17 Verified: 2026-05-23
An application for protection by a foreign national against whom a removal order is made at a port of entry as a result of a determination of inadmissibility on entry into Canada must, if the order is in force, be received as soon as the removal order is made. Written submissions, if any, must accompany the application. For greater certainty, the application does not result in a stay of the removal order.
