SFC Renewal Process Change Fall 2022

Dear Manitoba Motor Carrier,

Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure (MTI) regulates the operation of heavy commercial vehicles registered in the Province of Manitoba. The Manitoba Highway Traffic Act (HTA) defines a regulated vehicle as a motor vehicle or trailer that has a registered gross weight of 4,500 kg or more.
Section 312.2 of the HTA states that carriers must have a valid safety fitness certificate (SFC) to operate a regulated vehicle in Manitoba. SFCs are renewed annually and a valid SFC is required to register a regulated vehicle in Manitoba. The purpose of this letter is to provide notification of changes to the SFC annual renewal process starting in the fall of 2022.
