Department of Natural Resources and Mines service centres
you are a private client, some Department of Natural Resources & Mines (DNR & M) service centres are able to accept certain types of documents for duty assessments.
To see if you can use the DNR & M service centres please complete the following checklist:
- Are the documents either:
- Release of Mortgage Form 3 - if duty accounted for on all advances?
- Contract of Sale with Transfer Form 1?
- Contract of Sale only?
