No, an international student visa holder in Canada cannot work outside Canada.
Your Canadian study permit is only valid for work in Canada. It does not allow you to work outside of Canada. If you are caught working outside of Canada, you could be fined, deported, or denied entry back into Canada.
If you are interested in working outside of Canada, you will need to apply for a work visa from the country you want to work in. You will also need to meet the visa requirements of that country, which may include having a valid passport, proof of employment, and a clean criminal record.
If you are unsure about how to apply for a work visa, you should contact the embassy or consulate of the country you are interested in working in. They will be able to advise you on the specific requirements that you need to meet.
Here are some tips for international students who are interested in working outside of Canada:
- Complete your studies in Canada first. This will give you the best chance of securing a job outside of Canada.
- Research the visa requirements of the country you want to work in. Make sure you meet all of the requirements before you apply for a visa.
- Apply for a work visa well in advance of your planned departure date. The visa application process can take several weeks or months.
- Be prepared to provide evidence of your skills and qualifications. This may include letters of recommendation from previous employers, transcripts from your studies, and proof of language proficiency.
By following these tips, you can increase your chances of having a successful experience working outside of Canada.
