From: Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC)
Consult information on the most recent registration status of money services businesses and foreign money services businesses from the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada’s (FINTRAC) registry.
Consult the Money Services Business Registry
Money services businesses operating in Canada, and foreign money services businesses that direct and provide services to clients in Canada, must register with FINTRAC before they begin to operate.
Registration with FINTRAC does not indicate that FINTRAC endorses or licenses the business. It indicates only that the business has satisfied the legal requirements to register. FINTRAC does not issue licenses or certificates of registration to businesses it regulates.
FINTRAC cannot provide further information on a business other than what is made available in the Money Services Business Registry.
It is important to verify the registration details listed in the registry, such as the name, number and status of a money services business.
To find out more about conducting transactions with a money services business, consult: Conducting transactions with a money services business.
FINTRAC updates the Money Services Business Registry on a monthly basis. All fields are searchable. A downloadable version is also available.
