Passport Canada is responsible for issuing, refusing, revoking and withholding Canadian passports, in addition to administering their use and recovery.

Passport Canada supervises all matters relating to Canadian passports and travel documents and provides guidance to Canadian government offices abroad, enabling them to issue passports.

Besides serving the public directly, Passport Canada also works with national and international police authorities, security agents, border officials and any federal, provincial and territorial authorities that provide identification documents.
