You need it only if you travel by air – a Canada ETA. If you plan to cross the border with the US or arrive by sea, you do not need an electronic authorization.
The requirements are easy to meet – apart from a valid passport, an email address, and an online means of payment, you do not need anything else. The only exception regards Brazilian citizens: they need to provide proof that they had a Canadian visa in the last ten years or they currently hold a valid US non-immigrant visa.
The Canada ETA is valid for 5 years – that is the general rule, but it is not always the case. The visa policy of Canada states that the ETA is valid for 5 years or until your passport expires. So, if your passport expires before the 5 years pass, your ETA will expire prematurely as well. A new passport means that you need to apply for a new ETA.
