Canada Type Approvals

Regulatory authorities such as Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED), Health Canada, and Transport Canada oversee the Canada Type Approval process. These authorities establish the standards and regulations that products must meet in order to be approved for sale and distribution in Canada. Our team at iCertifi can help you navigate the Canada Type Approval process, ensuring that your products meet all the necessary requirements. . 

Canadian Type Approval Requirements 

The Canadian Type Approval requirements vary depending on the type of equipment and the regulatory authority involved. For example, electrical products must comply with standards established by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). While medical devices must meet Health Canada’s requirements for safety, efficacy, and quality. Our team at iCertifi has a deep understanding of these requirements and can help ensure that your products meet all the necessary standards and regulations. 

Canada Type Approval Mark

The Canada Type Approval mark is a symbol that indicates that a product has been approved for sale and distribution in Canada. This mark is issued by the relevant regulatory authority, such as Industry Canada or Health Canada, and must be displayed on the product or its packaging. Our team at iCertifi can help ensure that your products meet all the necessary requirements for displaying the Canada Type Approval mark.
