The following is a summary of the methods available for service in Canada as well as a specific proposal for process service.
FORMAL SERVICE
Many countries are signatories to The Hague Service Convention (treaty) that governs service of process to be effected between participating nations; Canada is one of them. Service may be made by formal service through the Central Authority which itself arranges for service by methods prescribed in the particular Province. Although CANADA is a signer of the Hague Service Convention, it is common to use the informal method of service. The time frame for formal service can range from 1 to 3 months (recently 1 1/2 months).
Advantage: Enforceable judgment.
Disadvantage: The time frame is generally longer than the informal method.
OPTION: We can provide an automatic update on formal Hague service for an additional, one-time fee of $300.00. This status update will be available once a month, or as requested, for purposes of obtaining a court deadline extension.
INFORMAL SERVICE
Private process servers may serve documents in most countries, whether a signer of the Hague Service Convention, or not. Service is normally handled in a manner similar to methods used in the United States. Service in Canada is very efficient and similar to the time frames within the United States. Since we pay the process server a bonus (at our own expense) for prompt service, the normal delays are usually reduced. Currently, the time frame for the completion of informal service is approximately 1 week.
Advantage: The time frame is generally shorter than the formal method.
Disadvantage: Judgment “may” not be enforceable in Canada.
LETTERS ROGATORY
Letters Rogatory is used for obtaining evidence or serving pleadings in countries which are not signers of the Hague Service Convention. They are a request from a court in the United States to a court in a foreign country requesting international judicial assistance related to service of process. This method is time consuming, cumbersome, and should be used only when other options are not available. The use of this method may result in habitual time delays of up to 1 year in the execution of requests. This method should only be used if no treaty is in force or if you are serving a Subpoena.

The official language in Yukon, Canada is English. As such, no translations of documents is required.

INTERNATIONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS MAP:YUKON, CANADA
DECLARATIONS: We provide formal declarations on the status of service upon request, as required by your court, at no additional charge. We subscribe to the U.S. Department of State weekly up-dates on international service of process and the Central Intelligence Agency briefings on social conditions abroad and monitor problems in nations that might affect the completion of the service. Estimated time for completion of service is subject to change depending on current conditions.
WARNING: Beware of companies that quote suspiciously low rates. They often come back later with an excuse for an additional charge. Our rates are firm for one address quoted. Other companies are actually brokerage firms or website developers, not process service agencies, who farm out assignments to companies that are not knowledgeable or qualified on international service of process.
