TV AD Clearance for Canadian Television

I get asked all the time how do I get my ad approved in Canada?

There's a lot to it but a quick run down is the following.

• You'll need to register at ThinkTV to submit your advertisement

• Submit your spot to ThinkTv to get a review

• ThinkTV turnaround time is a couple of business days but you can pay for rush clearance

• If you need pre clearance then you have to submit your creative to the ASC for review

• Once you receive your pre clearance number you will have to attach it to your ThinkTV submission

• Once ThinkTV assigns a TC# then you are approved send this to your traffic manager to attach to the form

This is a very simplified overview of Canadian Clearance. There is a lot of nuance to the process. If you have any questions or need help please contact me.
