What is the employer compliance fee? How do I pay it?
The employer compliance fee is a fee that employers must pay to hire a temporary worker through the International Mobility Program (IMP).
You don’t need to pay the employer compliance fee if you hire a worker:
- with a valid open work permit or
- through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program.
To pay, create an account in the Employer Portal and submit an offer of employment.
Employer compliance exemptions
Some employers don’t need to pay the employer compliance fee when they are LMIA-exempt. Find out if you are exempt.
