Questions regarding commercial vehicles

Can I Renew Corporate Owned Vehicles via MyGovNL?
Currently, the commercial services offered through MyGovNL include commercial vehicle exams (Class 1-4 & 9) and payment for
a commercial road test. Both services require access through an individual's account. Therefore, there are no relevant
services available for companies at this time, and corporate-owned vehicles are not eligible for renewal via MyGovNL.
If you have experienced an error when using MyGovNL or have received a notification that mentions expiration/cancellation of your insurance or that the VIN of your Vehicle may be incorrect, please visit the corresponding site below to amend.
For cancelled or expired insurance, visit:

For incorrect VIN, visit:

When dealing with the Personal Health Record, you will encounter two different types of codes when signing up. One of them is the Two-Factor Authentication code, and the other is the One-Time Activation code.
Two-Factor Authentication Code
The Two-Factor Authentication code is requested every time you attempt to access your Personal Health Record. This code is sent to you by email. You would enter that code on a screen that looks like the following:
It is important that once you get to this screen, you do not close out of it. A code will automatically be sent to your primary email address on the account. If you close out of this webpage and attempt to open it again, a new code will be sent, making the previous code no longer usable.
We suggest either:
- Using two different tabs in your web browser, one for your email and the other for the MyGovNL webpage, or
- Utilizing a mobile device for your email and a computer for the MyGovNL website.
Either of these methods will make it easier to retrieve the code without error. If you are having trouble receiving the code, please ensure that you check both the Spam and the Junk folder for the email.
If you are still not receiving the emails, please add the following email to your email contacts: mygovnl-no-reply@gov.nl.ca.
For Sympatico/BellAliant Users:
If you are using a Sympatico/BellAliant email account, please check that the Junk Mail settings in webmail.bellaliant.net are set to ‘Put in Junk folder’ rather than ‘Set to Delete’.
One-Time Activation Code
The One-Time Activation Code is sent to you by mail. This code is only sent to you once you have completed the entire onboarding criteria for the Personal Health Record. The code is then entered one time on the following screen:
Currently, NL Health Services has a Call Centre support that is available to users having issues with their One-Time Activation Code. You can reach them at the following number: 1-833-961-3750.
Hours of Operation: Monday to Friday, 8 AM – 8 PM NT
Please note that they will only be able to assist with issues regarding your One-Time Activation code and your Two-Factor Authentication Code that was sent to you by mail. They will not be able to assist with any other MyGovNL issues.
Once you enter the code and press Continue, you will have completed the onboarding process for the Personal Health Record and will be able to access and view your health records at your convenience.
