Seek early records disposition approval without retyping business details

Businesses seeking Ministry of Finance approval to destroy tax books and records before the general retention period repeat legal name, business number, authorized representative contact, and record descriptions on every ARD request. This guide is an example of storing them once in hivi.

Official form and source

Start from the official source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:

• Service page: Retention/destruction of books and records — ontario.ca
• Form (Central Forms Repository): Approval for Records Disposition (ARD) — 10015

What this form is about

Form 10015 is Approval for Records Disposition (ARD) used to request written permission to destroy Ontario tax books and records earlier than general consent rules allow — confirm retention requirements on ontario.ca.
