National CRN Registrations

Streamline multi-jurisdiction design registration in Canada.

National CRN Registration is provided when designs are to be registered in multiple provincial or territorial jurisdictions in Canada. This is intended to have a more streamlined and efficient approach for obtaining registration in multiple jurisdictions.

To register in a single jurisdiction, such as for site-specific installations, please contact the required jurisdiction directly.
