Welcome to Natural Resources Canada's (NRCan) Online Business Permits, Licences and Regulations Service. This service is the result of strong collaboration between the Government of Canada and participating provincial, territorial, regional, and municipal governments.

This service asks you to answer a short series of questions about the nature and scope of your current or proposed natural resource related business. Based on your answers, you will be provided with a personalized list of potential permits and licences from all levels of government that you may require to start or operate your business. The final results will provide information about each requirement, including cost, contact information and links to on-line forms. Please note that all of the information that you provide is done anonymously, and that you may save or print your results for future reference.
