To acquire landing permits from Transport Canada, operators are required to submit a detailed application at least 24 hours prior to their flight. This application must include several essential documents, such as:

1. Aircraft Registration Certificate (ARC): Essential for verifying the official registration of the aircraft.
2. Airworthiness Certificate (AWC): Confirms that the aircraft meets the necessary operational and safety standards.
3. Air Operator’s Certificate (AOC): A mandatory requirement for operators engaged in commercial aviation activities.
4.Insurance Certificate (IC): Provides evidence of liability insurance for the aircraft, covering third-party claims and potentially other risks.
5. Crew Credentials (CC): Includes pilot licenses, medical certificates, crew passports, and any necessary visas based on the nationality of the crew.
6. Flight Plan (FP): A detailed document outlining entry and exit points, scheduled times and dates, and the airports for departure and arrival.
7. Noise Compliance Certificate (NCC): Ensures the aircraft adheres to noise regulations set by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
8. Passenger Manifest (PL): For commercial flights, this document lists all passengers and includes required customs declarations for each individual.
9. Special Permits (SP): Additional authorizations may be required for:
Charter Operations (CO): Foreign commercial operators may need specific permissions.
Cargo Transport (CF): Depending on the nature of the cargo, permits for hazardous materials may be essential.
Humanitarian Missions or Special Events (HM/SE).
10. Security Approvals (SC): Extra security clearances may be necessary for flights carrying dignitaries or in other unique situations.

Additionally, operators must adhere to Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs) and any relevant bilateral agreements. If the flight involves transporting dangerous goods, further documentation and approvals will be necessary. The permit will specify any conditions or restrictions, including designated landing airports and adherence to noise abatement procedures. Fulfilling all these criteria is crucial for the successful approval of the landing permit application.
