Autofill Ontario Vendor Permit
Apply for Ontario business licences without retyping your owner details
Every Ontario business licence and permit application asks for the same owner name, address, and business identity details. This guide is an example of storing those repeating fields in hivi so each application starts mostly filled.
Official form and source
Start from the official Ontario source to find what licences and permits apply to your business:
What these applications are about
Ontario businesses may need licences and permits from provincial ministries, administrative authorities, and local municipalities depending on their activity. The BizPaL tool helps identify what's required; each licence is then applied for through the relevant agency.
Before you start: what to gather
- Your name and address (personal or business).
- Business name and type of business activity.
- Location of the business (for municipal requirements).
Use BizPaL on ontario.ca to generate a checklist of licences and permits for your specific situation.
How hivi makes it faster
- Store your owner identity details once. Save your name and address in hivi.
- Autofill owner fields on each application. Use the hivi Chrome extension on each agency's portal, or fill a PDF from your saved profile inside hivi.
- Enter business-specific details yourself — activity type, location, and permit-specific information.
- Submit to the relevant agency for each licence.
Why do it in hivi
Owner identity details repeat across every licence application, renewal, and government correspondence. Stored once in hivi — in Canada, with self-hosted AI — each business form starts mostly filled.
