  • Typically a history of travel to equivalent countries eg Schengen, USA, UK is likely to be helpful. What do you mean by neighbouring countries?

    Having travelled to other countries is not a requirement for any visa application. It may help tip the scale in your favour if your application isn’t very strong, but it will be a lot more effective if you have visits to countries with the same approximate cost of living/average revenue as the intended destination (e.g. in the case of Canada: Schengen countries, UK, Ireland, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, etc.). Anything is probably better than nothing, but it may not count for much.

    What is the reason for your visit to Canada? Travel history will be more important for tourism than (say) an employer-sponsored business trip. Commented Apr 23, 2023 at 23:13

    One of your most recent questions about visiting Canada states you were refused because they were not satisfied about your intention to leave at the end of your stay travel.stackexchange.com/questions/180639/… A history of travelling visa-free a couple of times to neighbouring countries probably won’t be enough to overcome that unless eg your ties to your home country are stronger than when you previously applied
