RVDA of Canada Gains Extension for Joint PFAS Reporting – RVBusiness – Breaking RV Industry News
Following up on its January communication regarding the mandatory reporting requirements for Forever Chemicals (PFAS) by importers, the RV Dealers Association (RVDA) of Canada announced in an email to its members that it has successfully secured an extension until July 29, 2025, to submit a consolidated report on behalf of Canadian RV dealerships.
This means that instead of individual dealers having to navigate complex reporting requirements, RVDA of Canada will submit a single report covering the import of recreational vehicles, parts, and accessories — ensuring compliance while reducing the administrative burden on our members, according to a release.
What you need to know
- Consolidated Reporting: The RVDA will submit a single report on behalf of its members, simplifying the reporting process.
- Data Collection and Analysis: The RVDA will be responsible for collecting, analyzing, and submitting the necessary data.
- Opt-Out Option: Dealerships can opt out of this consolidated reporting if they choose to submit their own reports directly to Environment and Climate Change Canada.
Next Steps
RVDA of Canada is working closely with U.S. manufacturers and suppliers to gather the necessary retroactive data.
Since this is a significant regulatory change, if you have any questions or require further clarification, please don’t hesitate to contact RVDA of Canada President Eleonore Hamm directly.
