1. Application Form for the Inclusion of Company-Designated Professionals

  • The information must be complete, with no cross-outs or alterations.
  • The form is available in an editable PDF format. Once completed, you must print it, sign it, and submit it along with the required documents.
  • The signatures on the form must be original and must be submitted duly authenticated by a notary public with the notary’s signature, seal, notarial security paper, and corresponding stamps, if the legal representative(s) and responsible professionals do not present themselves at the CFIA with a valid and intact identification card to complete the procedure and verify their signatures.
  • You can complete the process using a national digital signature that has been properly certified by the relevant institution; the digital certificate allows its owner to authenticate themselves and sign electronically. It is not a scanned signature.
