Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit Program (CPTC) – Canadian Audio-Visual Certification Office (CAVCO)

Name of User Fee Fee Type Fee-setting Authority Reason for Planned Introduction of or Amendment to Fee Effective Date of Planned Change Consultation and Review Process Planned
Fee levy under the Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit Program (CPTC)

Regulatory fee

CAVCO is responsible for determining whether a production is a Canadian film or video production and for estimating eligible labour expenditures for the CPTC.

The fees allow CAVCO to administer the program and recommend to the Minister of Canadian Heritage the issuance of a Canadian Film or Video Production Certificate and a Certificate of Completion for productions that meet the Canadian content requirement and are thus eligible for the CPTC.

There are also fees for an amended certificate already issued and certified copy of an already issued certificate.

Department of Canadian Heritage Act

The Canadian Audio-Visual Certification Office (CAVCO) of Canadian Heritage co-administers this program with the Canada Revenue Agency.

CAVCO is a Vote Netted Revenues organization. It had two objectives for originally establishing the fee structure:
  • To establish fees that would be simple and equitable for the entire audio-visual industry; and
  • To recover the cost of the services provided by CAVCO.
In 2004, CAVCO modified the user fee structure for the CPTC program to maintain service standards.
