Unclaimed Property
In June 2008, Alberta passed the Unclaimed Personal Property and Vested Property Act and Regulation. Both came into force on September 1, 2008.
The legislation establishes a service to Albertans who have lost track of property as a result of business or personal circumstances. A central registry administered by Alberta Finance and Enterprise, Tax and Revenue Administration (TRA), will:
- provide a searchable directory for unclaimed property,
- facilitate the processing of claims to reunite owners with their property,
- establish clear and centralized administration for the management of property that comes under the control of the Crown.
