A royal visit to Canada took place on May 26 and 27, 2025, the first to the country by Charles III as King of Canada. Accompanied by Queen Camilla, the King opened the 45th Canadian Parliament and delivered the Speech from the Throne, his first as King of Canada, and the first for any Canadian monarch since 1977.

The visit was intended as an affirmation of the country's sovereignty in the face of the United States trade war with Canada and threats by US President Donald Trump to annex Canada.

The visit was the twentieth official visit by Charles to Canada, and his first since becoming King in 2022.
