Submission Requirements For Registration Of Fittings Designs In Other Provinces
Through ABSA
The Alberta Boilers Safety Association (ABSA) offers a one-window service to fitting
manufacturers wishing to register their designs in multiple Canadian provinces. The
manufacturer makes one submission, deals with one agency for clarifying any outstanding
details and receives two invoices, one for the ABSA registration and a second
for all the other registrations. Please note that categories A, B, C, & G fitting
registration are exempt in BC & SK.
The following documentation is required for ABSA to register your fitting design and
to apply for fitting registration in other provinces on your behalf:
|
1. Two copies of the design data on the fittings, (i.e. the catalogs/drawings)
for each jurisdiction in which registration is required. Note: treat Nova Scotia,
New Brunswick, PEI, Newfoundland, Yukon, NWT and Nunavut as one jurisdiction as these
are processed by ACI Central Inc. Therefore, if registration is required across Canada,
a total of 14 copies are required (i.e. two each for BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba,
Ontario, Quebec and ACIC.) To obtain a ACIC statutory declaration form you may download
one from www.acicrn.com.
2. Two signed (i.e. with original signatures) Statutory Declaration forms for
each of the jurisdictions. Again, treat ACI Central Inc. member
jurisdictions as one. ACIC requires their own "Universal Statutory Declaration
Form" along with a "Fitting Information Form" both forms are available on their website
www.acicrn.com. All others will accept the Alberta Statutory Declaration form
AB-41.
3. One copy of the manufacturer's QC Certificate for each provincial submission.

Following a successful review for registration in Alberta, ABSA will submit this information
plus proof of registration in Alberta to the respective jurisdictions for their registration
and will pay the applicable registration fees on your behalf. Note that these registration
fees vary by province, and by the scope of the registration, so it is not feasible
to state the fees in advance. ABSA will, in turn, bill you for their own registration
fee and the other registration bodies fees plus an administration fee of $545.00 +
GST (regardless of how many jurisdictions you are applying to) plus courier and handling
charges of $47.00 + GST for each province for which you request registration. Where
possible, ABSA will answer any questions that may arise from any other jurisdictions
without your having to get involved.
For one registration across Canada, the administration fee plus courier and handling
fees would be $868.35 [($545.00 + 6 x $47.00) + 5% GST].
