Registering a gift lens possible?

[APK17]

Got a new 50mm 1.8 for my birthday.  I don't have the receipt - but I was told it was purchased directly from Canon.

Is it possible to get this lens registered?

Greetings ,

Registration requires a model number, serial number and date of purchase.  ff purchased directly from Canon they would have a record of the sale. 

If you needed service, I'm not sure how you would go about providing proof of purchase.  Go ahead and register your gift.  You can call Canon and see if there's anything else you need to do.

Yep, ebiggs1 nailed it, call Canon and they will get you all set up. I had to reach out for Canon to register a 24-105mm my better half bought for me as a gift, it was so easy to get resolved. If you don't already have an account create one prior to making the call.
