If I'm registered and have my airfare and hotel registration booked can my travel date be past the 15 day COE?

Thanks in advance
Answer summary
The Certificate of Entry (COE) must match your scheduled travel dates, typically allowing a maximum of 15 days for completion after pre-approval. While there is usually a 48 to 72-hour leeway for unexpected changes like flight time modifications, traveling significantly past the COE validity could require obtaining a new COE.

Lisa is right, I've just a bad experience a few weeks ago. I had to do a new COE.

You have 15 days from pre approval of COE, to complete it, with all required information.

The whole idea of COE, is you travel on the dates you've put on the form. Although there is less than 72 hours leeway, in case airline change, or move flight time.

Not sure what you’re asking here. The COE must match your travel dates.
