This is actually the rebirth of a very old requirement, one that requires companies that handle, offer for transport, transport, or import non-exempt dangerous goods into Canada to register some basic details with the agency. The goal is to allow Transport Canada to have a listing of the stakeholders in Canada who take part in regulated activities. Note that while site registration is not part of the system created by the United Nations in their <a href=\"https:\/\/unece.org\/transport\/dangerous-goods\/un-model-regulations-rev-22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerou<\/em><em>s Goods<\/em><\/a>, it does bear a resemblance to the requirements in the United States \u201cHazardous Materials Regulations,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/current\/title-49\/subtitle-B\/chapter-I\/subchapter-A\/part-107\/subpart-G?toc=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sections 107.601 to 620<\/a>, where shippers and carriers of certain types of shipments must register.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re not required to register until the one-year anniversary of the publication of the new rule, which is October 25<sup>th<\/sup> of 2024. However, you will have to do some information-gathering first, so you may want to get started now and beat the last-minute rush. Here are the steps you need to take to get your site registered.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 1 \u2013 Do You Need to Register?<\/h3>\n<p>Transport Canada has provided a \u201cquestionnaire\u201d to help you decide if you need to register. It\u2019s comically short, consisting of only one question:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Do you or your organization take part in DG activities at sites that you own or operate in Canada (import, offer for transport, handle, or transport dangerous goods)? Yes\/No<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, there\u2019s a little more to it than that. You don\u2019t have to register if the only dangerous goods you ship are exempted under Special Cases in Part 1 or certain special provisions in Schedule 2. In these cases, you aren\u2019t considered to be dealing with \u201cregulated\u201d goods and don\u2019t have to register. Note, however, that if you are using the \u201c500 kg exemption\u201d found in TDGR section 1.16, you do have to register.<\/p>\n<p>You also don\u2019t have to register if all the dangerous goods at any of your sites are under one of the following exemptions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your dangerous goods activities only involve goods originating from outside Canada and passing through Canada to a destination outside Canada without any handling being done in Canada;<\/li>\n<li>You have dangerous goods that cross the U.S.\/Canada border, but you don\u2019t have headquarters or own or operate a site in Canada; or<\/li>\n<li>The site in question is an oil well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Step 2 \u2013 Gathering Information<\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019ll need to know some information about your company and the site (or sites) you plan to register. First, decide who will be the primary contact to represent your company. Transport Canada says this can be \u201cthe organization&#8217;s owner, or \u2026 someone with permission to act on their behalf.\u201d Is it you? Congratulations. You\u2019ll also need an alternate contact to serve as a backup, so get their contact information ready as well. For each contact you must provide the full name, e-mail address and telephone number.<\/p>\n<p>Next, you\u2019ll need to find out the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) business number for your organization. Your accounting or financial department will probably have this information. You may need a GCKey which, again, your accounting department should be able to provide. The GCKey service is provided by the Government of Canada to allow you to securely conduct online business with various governmental programs and services. It\u2019s a unique username and password (electronic credential) that allows you to communicate securely with online government services such as the Client Identification Database (CID) that you\u2019ll be registering with. You can find out more in the \u201cAbout GCKey\u201d site at <a href=\"https:\/\/clegc-gckey.gc.ca\/j\/eng\/AB-01\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/clegc-gckey.gc.ca\/j\/eng\/AB-01<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Other information you must obtain includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your business\u2019s legal and operating name (remember, sometimes your incorporated name is different than your \u201cbrand\u201d name);<\/li>\n<li>Your head corporate address;<\/li>\n<li>The applicable <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/North_American_Industry_Classification_System\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">North American Industry Classification System<\/a> (NAICS) Code(s) for your company. If you don\u2019t know what codes apply to your organization, you can find out how to assign them at <a href=\"https:\/\/www23.statcan.gc.ca\/imdb\/p3VD.pl?Function=getVD&amp;TVD=1181553\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Statistics Canada<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Then, get the address or addresses for each site where your organization does dangerous goods activities. If you have a location without a street address, such as a mine or bush camp, you can give either the \u201cLegal Land Description\u201d or the longitude and latitude of the location. If possible, when registering more than one site, give each one a name, such as \u201cLarimer Camp\u201d or \u201cProduction Facility,\u201d but this is optional. It\u2019s also recommended but not mandatory to provide a telephone number and fax number (if one exists) for each site.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, consult with your shipping and product managers to figure out what types of dangerous goods are handled, offered for transport, transported, or imported at each site your organization owns. Get a list of the classes and\/or divisions your company deals with. You won\u2019t be able just to, for example, register \u201cClass 4.\u201d Instead, you\u2019ll have to specify which division or divisions in Class 4 are relevant to your organization, such as \u201cDivision 4.2.\u201d If you are registering Class 1 Explosives, you\u2019ll need to indicate each Compatibility Group letter as well as each division.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll also have to be able to tell transport which activities (handling, offering for transport, transporting, or importing) take place at the site, and which modes of transport (road, rail, air or marine) are used.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3 \u2013 Registering<\/h3>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve got all that information, you just need to head to the Registration Portal at <a href=\"https:\/\/cid-bdic.tc.canada.ca\/en\/SignIn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/cid-bdic.tc.canada.ca\/en\/SignIn<\/a>. Sign in with your GCKey, and just add the above information where requested. If you have any problems or questions, take a look at <a href=\"https:\/\/tc.canada.ca\/en\/dangerous-goods\/client-identification-database-cid\/cid-user-guides\/client-identification-database-cid-platform-user-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/tc.canada.ca\/en\/dangerous-goods\/client-identification-database-cid\/cid-user-guides\/client-identification-database-cid-platform-user-guide<\/a> for Transport Canada\u2019s complete user guide, which steps you through the whole process and shows a screen-by-screen approach to completing the registration.<\/p>\n<p>After you\u2019ve completed your initial registration, the portal will take you to the CID \u201cDashboard.\u201d This will allow you to review your information and make any changes or updates as necessary. Remember that you must review and update your registration annually, so make a note of when that date will arrive.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusions<\/h3>\n<p>The Client Identification Database is a new take on a very old requirement that had been eliminated from the TDGR many years ago but has a whole new look. Unlike what industry originally feared, the process is relatively streamlined and doesn\u2019t require a lot of information. A typical site shouldn\u2019t take more than an hour to register once you\u2019ve collected the data you need. And with this information, Transport Canada should be able to design and enforce their regulations more efficiently.<\/p>\n<h3>Contact Us<\/h3>\n<p>Do you have any questions about upcoming regulatory change in Canada or the United States?
