CRN FAQs
What is a CRN?
A Canadian Registration Number (CRN) certifies that pressure-retaining equipment (e.g., pressure vessels, boilers, piping, fittings) complies with Canadian codes and has been approved by a provincial or territorial regulatory authority.
Who issues the CRN?
Each province and territory has its own regulatory body (e.g., ABSA in Alberta, TSSA in Ontario) that reviews applications and issues CRNs for its jurisdiction.
Who needs a CRN?
Manufacturers, importers, suppliers, and end-users of pressure-retaining equipment operating in Canada.
How long does it take to get a CRN?
Timelines vary by province and equipment type, typically ranging from 2 to 12 weeks. Our team helps reduce turnaround times by ensuring accurate, complete submissions and avoiding common delays.
Is a CRN valid across all provinces?
No. CRNs are issued provincially. However, once approved in one province, it can often be registered more easily in others through a reciprocal registration process.
