Prince Edward Island Temporary Foreign Worker Protection Act

 

Prince Edward Island’s (PEI's) new Temporary Foreign Worker Protection Act comes into force on April 1, 2025.

College licensees who want to apply for a recruiter licence in PEI can do so from April 1 at www.princeedwardisland.ca/TFWP where detailed information about the Act can also be found.

A grace period will be in effect until July 1, 2025, during which individuals can continue providing recruitment services without a licence.

Anyone providing foreign national recruitment services for PEI employers without a licence after July 1, 2025, will be considered in violation of the Act.

Any questions about the Act or licence application process can be submitted by email to TFWP@gov.pe.ca or by calling 902-368-5550.
