Are you a Mosotho emmigrating to Canada? Or a returning Canadian?
There are always a number of important documents that you have to take with you to start a new life in a different country. There may be a few however that may not have made your checklist. Here are a few pieces of documentation we recommend you bring with you from Lesotho:

1. A Police Clearance Letter. This letter may be required for insurance purposes as well as for applications into certain jobs in Canada.
    
2. Driving Record from your Lesotho Insurance Company. This will be necessary when applying for vehicle insurance in Canada. Remember that no driving record may mean higher premiums, even if your licence indicates that you have been driving for a long time.
    
3. Drivers Licence Authentication letter. It would be advised to obtain this letter from the Transport Department either at district traffic centres or at the Ministry of Transport, Assissi Road, Maseru. This letter is necessary when applying for a Driver’s Licence exchange in Canada. The letter should clearly indicate the following:
   
   • The Bearer’s Full Names
   • The Bearer’s Passport Number
   • The Drivers Licence number
   • The Licence Issue and Expiry dates
   • The CLASS/ CODE of the licence (and brief description of the code)
    
4. Certified copies of Birth Certificates of children born in Lesotho. Parents are issued with an original certificate and a certified copy, however, it would be recommended for parents to make additional copies and have them certified prior to leaving Lesotho.
