Types of Compliance Notices

Transport Canada issues compliance notices, which may be either a glued-on label or a riveted metal plate.

There are three types of compliance notices. The type of compliance notice you have depends on the length of your vessel.

• For vessels 6 metres (19.7 feet) or less in length, the compliance notice includes the maximum recommended safe limits.
• For vessels more than 6 metres (19.7 feet) in length, there are compliance notices for:
  • Pleasure craft
  • Non-pleasure craft
