Create a profile to the Impact Assessment Agency Proponent Portal

Welcome to the Impact Assessment Agency’s Proponent Portal. This portal aims to facilitate the exchange of documents, data and contact information between proponents and the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (IAAC).

The Government of Canada is offering federal permitting coordination support for projects where multiple federal permits, licences or other authorizations (referred throughout as “permits”) are required prior to starting construction.

You do not need to apply if your project has already been or may be designated under Impact Assessment Act or for projects that are undergoing or will be undergoing an impact assessment process under the following Northern legislation:

Instead, please contact permit.coordination.permis@iaac-aeic.gc.ca to better understand the permitting coordination supports already available to you.

For projects not subject to the above Acts, we can help coordinate the permitting process for projects that will soon be ready for permitting and meet at least two of the following criteria:

  • Are of significant economic scale to Canada or the region in which they will operate
  • Contribute significantly to the Government of Canada’s environment and climate change objectives
  • Use first-of-its-kind technology in Canada or involve highly complex permitting
  • Advance economic reconciliation
  • Fall within a federal or provincial priority area

Please Note: Before requesting a profile here, you should confirm that your project is not described under the Physical Activities Regulations and is therefore not a designated project subject to the Impact Assessment Act. For more information on designated projects and federal impact assessment please visit Impact Assessment Agency of Canada - Canada.ca

Please fill out the following form to request a profile.

After you submit the form, the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada will contact you with more information about federal permitting coordination and next steps. If your project is determined to meet the eligibility criteria, IAAC will explain how to submit a full project description.
