Explosives Forms

To manage your explosives licensing needs, the most efficient approach is to use the electronic Licence Management System (eLMS). Through the eLMS, you have immediate access to all of your authorizations, permits, licences, enrolments and certificates. All services are available, i.e., starting an application, making payments, checking an application status, updating information and receiving approvals.

However, if it is not possible to use the eLMS, you can find the applicable forms on this page. Send these forms to the Explosives Regulatory Division (ERD) by regular mail or email as indicated on the form.
