What is one characteristic of a Non-Registrant?

A Non-Registrant is characterized by the act of selling travel services without being officially registered in Ontario. This means that they do not have the required licensing or adherence to the regulations set forth by the Travel Industry Council of Ontario (TICO).

Being a Non-Registrant signifies that they do not follow the mandated oversight and consumer protection measures that are in place for registered travel agencies and services. This can potentially put consumers at risk, as these individuals or entities do not operate under the standards and regulations that protect consumers in the travel industry.

The other options present conditions typically expected of registered professionals or organizations within the travel sector. For instance, submitting annual reports and adhering to TICO regulations are important elements for those who are registered and part of the regulatory framework. Operating without a business plan isn't necessarily exclusive to Non-Registrants either, as any business could in theory operate without one, but it is typically not advisable and does not define their registration status.
