CRN registration in other provinces
Pressure equipment designs used in Quebec are registered with the Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ).
Quebec’s code is 6. It appears after the decimal point of a CRN once the design is registered in Quebec: first if Quebec registered it first, later in the order the provinces signed off.
Yes. A design must be registered in each province or territory where the equipment is used. Quebec is a party to the CRN Reconciliation Agreement. A design already registered elsewhere needs proof of that first registration, and one RBQ application can request a CRN in several jurisdictions. Once Quebec registers it, the code 6 is added to the CRN.
Yes. We prepare CRN applications for manufacturers in the USA, India and worldwide, with Canadian P.Eng. review and stamp, and submit them to RBQ.
