Hello

As per my understanding - we have a 3-month grace period within which we can use Indian passport for travel. (not necessarily to India but also to any country that you have a valid visa stamped on your Indian passport)

Have there been any changes to this rule?

I'd need to fly out of Canada immediately after the Oath ceremony (after collecting my Canada citizenship certificate). I'm employed in EU (European Union) currently. So I would need to use my Indian passport which has the EU work visa stamped to fly out of Canada and get back to EU.

I plan to apply for Canada passport in EU at the local Canada consulate.

Thanks
