Is there a restriction for 17-year-olds to study abroad from India in Canada?
27 Jul 2026 · Answered by Muskan Jain · 1 min read
Yes, 17-year-olds from India can study abroad, but there may be extra requirements based on the destination country.
For Canada, students under 18 often need a custodian - a responsible adult in Canada - especially in certain provinces. The exact age and rules vary by province and are subject to change. You’ll also need a notarized Custodianship Declaration form signed by your parents and the custodian.
Requirements can differ for other countries.
