Why Fees Are Increasing
OMVIC continues to evolve to meet growing service demands and deliver on key priorities, including recommendations from the 2021 Auditor General’s Value for Money Audit. To support these initiatives and operate efficiently, OMVIC is adjusting fees. These updates are part of a broader effort to strengthen consumer protection and industry oversight in Ontario.
