Professionally selling or using pesticides, or applying them in agriculture or forestry: obtain the individual certificate

Priority

The individual certificate does not replace a required business permit. Its category must match the work actually performed.

Confirm the scope

Identify the activity, pesticide class and certificate subcategory, including farmer and forestry-manager cases.

Choose prescribed or recognized exams, prepare and gather proof of success or an interprovincial equivalency request.

File the form or use the online service, attach records, pay fees and request every needed category.

Carry the certificate, follow its scope and manage 30-day changes, continuing education and five-year renewal.
