FINTRAC's new consumer publication- What you need to know

Changes to Canada's anti-money laundering legislation, will come into effect on June 23, 2008.

These changes include new requirements for real estate brokers and salespersons, one of which is to obtain identification from clients during financial transactions.

FINTRAC has published a consumer publication- What you need to know- to help consumers understand why you are now required to show identification.

The publication answers the following questions:
  • Why do I have to show ID when I've been a customer here all my life?
  • What type of ID do I have to provide?
  • What other information may I be asked to provide?
  • Where can I get more information?

If you'd like to get printed copies of this publication you can send a request to publications@fintrac.gc.ca
