To qualify for certification in Canada, trap manufacturers must first ensure their traps meet ISO standards. This applies to mechanically powered, trigger-activated restraining and killing devices, as well as to live-capture box or cage traps. The traps are then tested by the FIC following procedures contained in the document International Humane Trapping Standards – Trap Certification Procedures and Protocol to be Applied by Canadian Competent Authorities
