Register your business unit address at the RMWB

Municipalities in Alberta are responsible for assigning standardized civic addresses

Many multi-unit buildings in the region are displaying incorrect unit addresses that do not align with current municipal standards. A correct address ensures emergency services like police, fire and ambulance can locate your business quickly when it matters most.

The address of your office, commercial or industrial business may not be accurate – especially if located in a multi-unit building that was originally constructed as a single space with one address.

If you operate a home-based business, this requirement does not apply to you. 

Why an accurate business unit address is important

Municipal addressing helps keep your property—and the people in it—safe. It also supports your business by:

• Helping customers and clients find you more easily.
• Ensuring continued mail delivery from Canada Post without disruption.
• Preventing delays when applying for permits or renewing your business licence.

Property owners responsible for registering unit addresses

Only property owners can apply for civic unit addresses in their building. If you are a tenant in a multi-unit building, please contact your property owner to complete the following steps:

1. Check to see if your building’s business unit addresses are correct online.
2. Complete your application for unit addresses at rmwb.ca/address or in person at 9909 Franklin Ave., Fort McMurray.

Registration costs $150 per unit address.
