VERIFY
Verify an Appraiser’s AVAC Membership
To check whether a vehicle appraiser is currently a member of the Association of Vehicle Appraisers of Canada (AVAC), email [email protected]. Ask for a current membership confirmation before relying on an AVAC affiliation claim.
What to include in your request
- The appraiser’s full name
- The business name and province or city
- An AVAC member number, if one was provided
- A report date or reference number, if relevant
What does a membership check confirm?
A membership check concerns the person’s current AVAC membership status. It is not an endorsement of a specific valuation, a guarantee of report accuracy or a guarantee that an insurer or other recipient will accept a report.
Does a logo prove membership?
A logo or mention of AVAC on a report is not a substitute for direct confirmation. Contact AVAC if you are unsure about a membership claim.
Protect personal information
Send only the details needed to identify the appraiser. Please do not send identity documents, banking details or a complete claim file for an initial membership check.
