As a boat owner in Canada, you will get the enjoyment of taking your boat out onto Canada waters to relax, see sights, spend time with family and friends, swim, fish, and other activities. Before you put your boat in the water for the first time, you need to make sure that you have proper registration or a licence for your vessel. Licensing your boat in Canada does not cost you anything and gives you the information you need for your boat, and there is a process you need to go through to get a pleasure craft licence in Ontario.
Finding the Pleasure Craft Forms
Your first step is to find the forms that you will need to file with Transport Canada, the government agency that takes care of licensing and registration in Canada. You can go to Transport Canada’s website and see the information there, and there are forms you can download and fill out that will assist you. The problem some boat owners have is that there are many forms available, and you may not be sure just which you need or how to fill them out properly.
Supplying Documentation for a Licence
Another problem people often run into when getting a pleasure craft licence in Ontario is that they do not know what documentation they need to provide or how to provide. Your licensing forms must be mailed to Transport Canada or filed on their website, meaning you will need to provide proof of ownership, personal identification, and photos of your vessel either electronically or with physical copies to send in the mail.
