Digitizing Personal Property Registries: Alberta

As government services become more streamlined, the Alberta Personal Property Registry (PPR) has updated its notice procedures to digitize the registration of a secured party's liens.

Keeping pace with an increasingly digital world, the Alberta government has already begun its shift towards "digital innovation". This incremental shift will alter how the Personal Property Registry communicates with secured parties.

Streamlining notice procedures

In the past, notices of any changes to a registration, including amendments, renewals or discharges, were sent by mail to the secured party at the address listed in the effective registration. Now, the Alberta PPR has started sending notices to secured parties by email instead.
