Moncton listings run on the province-wide NB MLS® operated by New Brunswick REALTORS®, whose rulebook is not published. What applies in writing is the Real Estate Agents Act: no false, misleading or deceptive statement in any advertisement, and no leaving out a fact needed to keep a statement honest. Say the photo is staged, in both languages if you can.
Two Moncton photographers publish virtual staging at $35 a room; the province-wide board's office is on St. George Boulevard.

Sedam Staging burns the “Virtually staged” label into every listing image, ships the untouched original beside it, compares every render against the photograph so walls, windows, floors and built-ins never move, and writes the remarks line into the download. See the renders we refused →
Not a published one. The Act's ban on misleading advertising and the REALTOR® Code are the operative text, and both say the same thing: a staged photo has to be disclosed.
In Greater Moncton, yes. The French remarks line on the New Brunswick page is written for exactly that.
How this page was made. Each quotation was read at the linked source on September 2, 2026; our confidence that it is current and complete is medium (high on the statute, read on laws.gnb.ca in both languages; low on MLS® practice, because the rulebook is not public). Rules change and boards add policies; the linked documents are the authority, and this is a plain-language summary, not legal advice. Spotted a change? Tell us and we will fix the page.
