OMVIC launches exporter guideline to support registrants

OMVIC is offering guidance on how best to support the industry and protect consumers, including those involved in vehicle exporting.

The Motor Vehicle Dealers Act (MVDA) defines seven classes of registered dealers, including the exporter class. Each class has unique registration and compliance requirements for business operations. These guidelines focus on the obligations of exporters, detailing their legislative requirements and addressing common issues specific to this dealer class.

What does this guideline contain?

In summary, the exporter guideline outlines:

• Authorized activities for exporters
• Take ownership prior to export
• Registration requirements
• Class specific exemptions
• Officers, directors, shareholders
• Employees and agents
• Business premises
• Business records

OMVIC will be hosting two informational webinars to address any questions or comments.

Monday, November 11 at 1:00 p.m. 

Thursday, November 14 at 11:00 a.m.
