Any new or renewing travel agency or independent advisor membership will be valid until December 31, 2025

Travel Agency Membership

ACTA's core membership category is travel agency membership, consisting of travel agencies across Canada. The agency owner pays for the membership of the head office and all branch locations with a valid TICO (Ontario), OPC (Quebec), or Consumer Protection BC registration number. Dues are based on the number of agency personnel and travel advisors at each location. Each eligible agency employee or travel advisor within a location will receive a digital ACTA membership card (PDF/Apple & Google Wallet).
