National Address Register

Release date: July 18, 2025

The National Address Register (NAR) provides users with an authoritative list of valid georeferenced civic addresses in Canada, including their corresponding mailing addresses, in a standardized address structure. Addresses that have non-civic address information will be included in addition to the civic address.

The National Address Register (NAR) sets up a standardized address structure and provides a list of valid georeferenced civic addresses in Canada. The addresses are extracted from Statistics Canada's Building Register and were validated by a minimum of two independent data sources. The addresses do not disclose the identity of any of the residents or businesses at the address and as such are deemed non-confidential. The corresponding mailing version of the address is added and follows Canada Post's addressing guidelines.

The National Address Register (NAR) User Guide provides details and definitions for understanding the NAR concepts and variables in the dataset.
