On December 16, 2021, the government of Quebec announced an increase in application fees for services provided by the Ministry.
Starting from January 1, 2021, the Ministry’s fees will be indexed by 2.64%, which are adjusted every year in accordance with section 83.3 of the Financial Administration Act, and the adjustment rate issued by the Ministere des Finances du Quebec.
