2025 Gas Code Updates

If the food truck is new to the province or has never been previously inspected in Saskatchewan, you will need to hire a licensed Gas Contractor who will apply for a permit.

Contact TSASK to confirm if the food truck has been previously inspected, you will need to provide the Vehicle Identification Number.

If TSASK has previously inspected the food truck, a sticker with the date the inspection was passed should be located on the unit.

If it was previously inspected and is a re-certification, you can contact TSASK at geis@tsask.ca or call 1-866-530-8599, option 2.

To qualify for a Gas Fitter licence you need a letter from the Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission showing your successful examination results and the date your achieved this.

Not all Gas Fitters achieve their qualifications from SaskApprenticeship – we require proof of qualifications, either a Certificate of Qualifications from another province, or a letter of exam results from SaskApprenticeship.

When working in Saskatchewan, two different licences are required:

1. The Gas Fitter licence is for the individual to be allowed to perform the work in the province as a qualified Gas Fitter. We require a copy of their credentials as proof of qualifications to issue the licence; and
2. The Gas Contractor licence is for the business/company to pull the permits through TSASK Inspections. We require a Gas Contractor’s guarantee bond to issue the licence.

No, we issue our own Saskatchewan licence to you. We require proof of qualifications of your licence you obtained through your own province.
