Indian national deportations from Canada
Overview
In the first half of 2026, Canada deported 3,323 Indian nationals, a figure that appears on track to exceed the 2025 total of 3,779. Indian nationals have become the largest group of deportees in Canada, surpassing Mexican nationals.
The increase in removals is attributed to tightened federal immigration policies, including stricter border controls and a reduction in temporary residents. Primary drivers for these deportations include visa overstays, rejected asylum claims, and document fraud, with specific impacts noted on international student pipelines and temporary foreign worker programs.
