TICO Registration Renewal Fees
TICO's registration renewal fees are in accordance with TICO’s Fee Schedule. A renewal fee is payable for each retail and wholesale registration held. The renewal fees are for a one-year period and are based on the prior fiscal year's annual Ontario Gross Sales that were reported to TICO.
Following a comprehensive funding framework and fee review, on February 1, 2024, TICO announced changes to its fee structure for registrants with year-ends on or after April 1, 2024.
With the recalibrated renewal fee bands, all registrants pay the same variable rate on the same dollar of Ontario Gross Sales.
New Fee Bands (Ontario Gross Sales) | New Renewal Fees |
Less than or equal to $10 million | Flat rate of $750 |
Greater than $10 million to $50 million | $0.29 per $1,000 in OGS |
Greater than $50 million to $100 million | $0.27 per $1,000 in OGS |
Greater than $100 million to $250 million | $0.25 per $1,000 in OGS |
Greater than $250 million | $0.23 per $1,000 in OGS |
