Where applicable, Nivoex will provide its clients with a simplified procedure for easily transferring data from our reports into this template.

Key takeaway: If a seller asks the syndicate to complete a different certificate template, only the minimum information required by the Regulation is mandatory. The syndicate may add any information it considers essential, while respecting the co-owners' privacy. This obligation is set out in article 1068.1 of the Civil Code of Québec.

The Regulation governing the management of divided co-ownerships in Quebec (the “Regulation”) will come into force on August 14, 2025. It was officially published in the Gazette officielle du Québec on July 30, 2025.

Pro tip from djclegal.com:

Prepare the certificate at the same time as you prepare your annual general meeting. You will only need to review the information that changed during the year!
