Electronic Reporting to FINTRAC: Batch
Batch reporting is the submission of multiple reports in one file. To
use this you have to create the batch file and format the information
according to FINTRAC's
specifications. FINTRAC will provide you with the software to
encrypt and transmit the batch file. In addition to FINTRAC's
enrolment process for electronic
reporting, there is a two-step process as follows:
- Step 1: Obtain a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
certificate and download the reporting software (ViaSafe).

- Step 2: Assure data formatting according to
FINTRAC's batch specifications by sending files through a testing
channel.

Even those who send reports by batch will need an administrator for
F2R to maintain certain information about locations, contacts, etc.
