What is a numbered company?
When incorporating a company, it’s assigned a corporation number. If you choose not to name your business, this number becomes its official name—for example, 1000044599 Canada Inc. The main advantage of a numbered company is that it skips the NUANS name search and approval process, which saves time and reduces costs. However, the downside is that it doesn’t provide a marketable brand name for use in advertising, signage, or brand development.
What is a Named Corporation?
A Named Corporation allows you to select a custom business name—e.g., Johnson Car Wash Inc. A Numbered Corporation does not include a custom name. Instead, a number is assigned by the government—e.g., 1000044599 Canada Inc.
Why I need Name Approval?
Prior to incorporate a named federal corporation, the name must be pre-approved by Corporations Canada. To submit a name pre-approval request, Corporations Canada asks for a valid Nuans report. Therefore, reserving a valid Nuans report is the first step, obtaining the name pre-approval is the second step and registering the corporation is the third step.
Which Legal Ending to choose?
By law, every corporate name must include a legal ending. The government allows six options (like Inc., Ltd., or Corp.), all of which carry the same meaning. Choose the one that complements your business name best.
Any rules for corporation's name?
Generally a name should have two elements: distinctive and descriptive. The distinctive element can't be common English word, it has to be unique or made up words while descriptive element can be common English words. An example is "Mike Construction". In this name 'Mike' is the distinctive/unique element; 'Construction' is the descriptive element. Put your ideal name, if doesn't work, we will guide you.
What is a numbered company with a trade name?
The biggest advantage of a numbered company is is skipping the Nuans name search and name approval step. Therefore, the incorporation process is relatively faster and less expensive. However, the biggest disadvantage of a numbered company is, it does not have have a brand name for the purpose of marketing, business signs, and developing a brand. This disadvantage can be easily resoloved by adding a trade name.

  • The address must be a physical location within Ontario.
  • P.O. Boxes and virtual addresses are not permitted.

What is the difference between the 2 Address options?

What is an address with mail scanning service?
The Address Service is an annual mail-handling and document-scanning solution we offer to corporations that do not have a local physical address. This service can be renewed yearly for a similar fee. Any government or corporation-related mail received on your behalf will be scanned and emailed directly to you, if the service is selected.
How can I change my address in the future?

Impact of adding additional director(s)
Each director has equal power and control over the corporation (by majority vote). The directors manage the corporation's business. You may add an additional director whom you trust. Note: BC has no residency requirement for directors; they can be from anywhere in the world.
Can I add or remove a director later?
Yes. At least one director must be listed at the time of incorporation. You can update the director information at any time in the future by filing a Notice of Change with the BC Corporate Registry. If you opt for our Complete Maintenance package, director changes can be made at no additional cost.
What are the requirements to be a director?
A director is responsible for overseeing the corporation's operations. To qualify as a director in BC: Must be 18 years or older. Must be an individual (not another corporation). Must not be bankrupt. (BC has no residency requirement).
Are you incorporating on behalf of a alient?
If you are a lawyer, accountant, or service provider setting up the corporation for a client, do not enter your own name in this section. It should reflect the actual owner(s) or director(s) of the corporation. Note: We do not contact directors directly. All communication is handled through the person listed in the billing address.
Articles of Incorporation
A Custom Articles of Incorporation allow you to establish a distinctive legal framework for your company by incorporating specific elements beyond a typical template. This may include limitations on business operations or share transfers, and particular governance guidelines. Such flexibility allows you to customize the corporation’s structure to meet your specific requirements and providing enhanced control.

Custom Clauses & Provisions

The classes and any maximum number of shares that the corporation is authorized to issue:
Rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions (if any) attaching to each class of shares and directors' authority with respect to any class of shares which may be issued in series. If there is only one class of shares, enter "Not Applicable"
The issue, transfer or ownership of shares is/is not restricted and the restrictions (if any) are as follows. If none, enter "None"
Restrictions, if any, on business the corporation may carry on or on powers the corporation may exercise. If none, enter "None"
Other provisions, if any. Enter other provisions, or if no other provisions enter “None”

Corporate Bylaws and Minutes
⚠️ Important: Mandatory Bylaws and Minutes (CBCA Act)

Keeping bylaws and minutes is MANDATORY according to the CBCA act. We left this section as a choice on purpose because many of our clients are lawyers who prefer to draft the bylaws on their own. Choosing not to include it indicates the following:

  • You will file yourself to add officers (CEO, President etc.)
  • You will file yourself to add shareholders (owners to this company)
  • You will file to define who owns what percentage of shares
  • You will prepare documents on corporation's borrowing powers
  • You will add shareholder termination clause
  • You will add director's rights & responsibilities
  • You will add shareholder's rights & responsibilities
  • You will make your own Central Securities Register
  • You will add the dispute resolution clause

Help Section

What is standard clause in the articles?
Standard provisions are used by default in the Notice of Articles and the internal By-laws for a wide range of standard BC businesses and everyday operations. These are flexible and non-restrictive.
May I amend the articles?
Yes. The initial Notice of Articles is filed with the government. After incorporation, these articles can be modified by filing Articles of Amendment with the BC Corporate Registry, along with the required fees.
What is company bylaws & minutes?
Corporate By-laws (or company constitution) are the internal rules, rights, and policies set by a corporation. They, along with the Minutes (records of meetings), are part of the required Corporate Records that ensure no rules conflict with the BC Business Corporations Act (BCA). Banks often require By-laws to open an account.
May I customize share classes?
In the next section, you will be asked to choose share classes. The default structure works for most small businesses, but you may customize the classes, rights, and restrictions to align with a complex ownership or tax plan.
Is this expense tax ceditable?
Yes, the expense is tax creditable. When you incorporate a company, the expenses are called business development expenses which are tax creditable.
Share Classes
Creating a personalized share class means creating specific types of shares, such as Class A, Class B, or preferred shares, that offer varying rights, voting capabilities, and financial interests to shareholders. By introducing these unique share classes, you can retain authority over corporate decisions, handle dividend allocations, and dictate how assets are divided in the event of liquidation of the corporation.

Personalized Share Classes

Creating custom share classess requires careful consideration and may need specialized drafting by our specialists. You can upload OR email us your custom requirements. Our registry agent might contact you for further information.

Share Price

Will it issue Class B non-voting share?

Help Section

What is share and why need it?
Since a corporation is a separate legal entity from its owners, it is owned only by owning its shares. The corporation's capital and equity are divided into pieces, and each piece is called a share. Owning shares gives you a proportional claim on the company's profits and assets.
Can I change share price in future?
For simplicity of corporate filing, most people set up a low or nominal share price (like $1) in the beginning. Eventually, the authorized share capital (including share price and share numbers) can be adjusted later by filing Articles of Amendment and updating your corporate records.
What is class A and B shares?
Shares are classified to define owner rights. Class A common voting share owners have voting rights to change the corporation's policies and rules. Class B common non-voting share owners do not have such rights, often used for tax planning or investors who do not wish to be involved in management.

What does shareholder mean?
In simple language, the shareholders are the owners of the corporation. If a corporation has 1 shareholder, regardless of the number of shares, the single shareholder owns 100% of the corporation.
How to set up share class?
A corporation has 2 shareholders: John and Mike. Case 1: Both owners have rights to vote: Assign class A to both. Case 2: Only John has voting rights: Assign class A to John and class B to Mike.
How to set up share number?
Share numbers must be whole numbers. Case 1: John, Mike and Ali own same percentage: Assign exact same number to each. Case 2: John owns 40%, Mike owns 30% and Ali owns 30%: Assign shares 40 to John, 30 to Mike and 30 to Ali. Case 3: Avoid decimals by scaling up the proportion. E.g., for 51%, 24.5%, 24.5%, assign 102, 49, and 49 shares.
Can I change share details in future?
Yes. You can change share price, share number, and shareholders at any time by filing the appropriate corporate documents and updating the central share register (corporate records).

Why should I incorporate my business federally?
  1. Nationwide Name Protection
    Exclusive Business Name: With federal registration, you have the rights to use your firm name across all provinces and territories. It prohibits any other company from registering with the exact same name anywhere in Canada.
    Stronger Brand Identity: This nationwide protection creates a more solid brand identity that will help gain trust if one day you want to expand outside a single province.
  2. Ability to Operate in More Than One Province
    Flexibility Across Jurisdictions: A federal corporation can operate in any province or territory. This comes quite handy in case your business enjoys, or has the potential of enjoying, customers, employees, or physical operations in more than a single province.
    Expansion: You will not have to incorporate separately in each province. In the case of some provinces, you may have to register your business there to comply with local regulations.
  3. Perceived Credibility
    Professional Image: Federally incorporated companies are often perceived to be more established and, as such, more credible. This could help engender trust in your business from a wide range of stakeholders, customers, suppliers, and investors alike.
    Investor Confidence: Investors will potentially see more reliability in federal corporations because of the wider governance and regulations that apply to them.
  4. Access to Federal Programs
    Government Contracts: A few federal government contracts and purchasing opportunities may be limited to only those that are federally incorporated.
    Grants and Incentives: Certain federal grants, loans, and tax incentives are more readily accessible with federally incorporated businesses.
  5. Simplified Governance
    Standardized Rules: Federal corporations operate under uniform set of laws, the Canada Business Corporations Act (CBCA), which reduces the headache of compliance in case of operations across multiple provinces.
  6. Easier International Expansion
    Global Perception: Federal incorporation may be perceived to be a seal of approval for an international client or partner. If you consider expanding internationally, a federal corporation is usually better recognized.
  7. Shareholder and Director Flexibility
    Director Residency Flexibility: With the changes in recent legislation, federally incorporated companies no longer face the burden and restriction of having 25% of the directors being Canadian residents. This only makes it more appealing to companies with international directors or investors.
    No Provincial Limitations: You are allowed to have any number of directors from any province out of several, which makes it slightly easier in handling the governance of your business.
  8. Ownership and Share Structure
    Flexible Share Structure: Under the federal corporation, there is more flexibility when it comes to types of shareholders and issue of shares, such as different classes of shares.
What are the unique benefits of incorporating federally?
  • Increased Name Protection: Corporations Canada applies very strict tests before approving the use of a particular name for an organization. Rights to a company’s name are protected nationally when approved – a status second only to trade-mark protection.

  • Right to carry on business anywhere in Canada: Federally incorporated companies can carry on business anywhere in Canada without restrictions concerning the location of the head office or place where corporate records are maintained and its general annual meetings are held.

  • Recognition: Federal incorporation is almost always associated as a sign of distinction. Companies that are incorporated federally get global recognition as decent Canadian companies.
How quickly can my business be incorporated?

Your business can be incorporated as a numbered standard federal corporation in a mere 2 BUSINESS HOURS! For named corporations, the process can be completed within 6 business hours.

What is required to incorporate my Federal company?

Business Name: The name you choose for your business has to be unique and different from all the other registered business names in Canada. You can pick your own unique name, or you can accrue a numbered name assigned by the government. If you are incorporating a named corporation, you’ll need a NUANS report (Purchasable through our incorporation packages). Please note that depending on your type of incorporation, you may be obliged to use certain names which will have to conform to rules set out by an oversight authority. If the name proposed has some problems, we will write to advise you and propose some viable names for incorporation.

Incorporators, Directors, Officers, and Shareholders: To incorporate, you must decide who the directors are, who the officers are and what powers they have, and who the shareholders are. You must have at least one incorporator, one director, and one shareholder, but one person can fill all three roles. Officers are deemed employees of the corporation. Note Not-For-Profits and Co-Ops require a minimum of 3 directors to be active.

Registered Office Address: Every company must have a registered office address. This may be ANY commercial or residential address in all of Canada. If you do not have an accessible address in Canada, you may buy our Address & Mail Forwarding Service (Available only for the purpose of the registration).

Are there any residency requirements to incorporate federally?

Yes, at least 25% of the corporation’s directors are required to hold either Citizenship or Permanent Resident (PR) Status.

What are Extra-Provincial Registrations?

Extra-provincial registration is a process through which a corporation, either federally or provincially or territorially incorporated, applies for permission to carry on business in a jurisdiction other than its home jurisdiction; where it must have legal capacity and powers, and the capability of holding property or carrying on business in the added jurisdiction.
Extra-provincial registration has a number of requirements:

  • Legal Compliances: There are various laws and regulations in each particular province and territory that local and outside businesses have to follow. Extra-provincial registration would eventually give corporations compliance with the requirement in the jurisdiction where they aim to operate.
  • Protection of Rights: Registration will serve in protecting the legal rights of corporations, hence having them stand a chance of gaining the benefits accruable under the laws in the added jurisdiction. It provides a legal framework upon which the corporation can conduct business activities, enter into contracts, and enforce its rights.
  • Transparency and Accountability: The extra-provincial registration advocates accountability and transparency wherein information about the operations and activities in the corporation will be made available to the regulatory authorities or the public in the additional area.

Where you plan to operate in other provinces or territories, you will also need to register as an extra-provincial or extra-territorial corporation in those jurisdictions. The process has legal consequences involving compliance with laws and regulations both in the original jurisdiction of incorporation and in the additional jurisdiction. These include filing, maintaining a registered office address, and appointing a registered agent in the additional jurisdiction.

Our Address Service and Agent Service enables our clients to conveniently register their corporations in provinces and territories where they do not currently have a presence. These services are included in all our incorporation packages.

Subscription Terms: The Agent Service operates under the same subscription model as the Address Service, requiring annual renewal and payment. All terms regarding renewal, non-payment consequences, and notification procedures outlined in Section 8.1 shall apply equally to the Agent Service.

8.3 Government Information and Documentation Fees

Business Number: Upon successful registration, a Business Number is typically generated automatically by the government. While this number is issued at no cost by the government, Business Registration Center charges a service fee to retrieve, process, and securely deliver this information to the User.

Company Key (Ontario) and Similar Identifiers: In Ontario, a Company Key is automatically generated upon incorporation. Other jurisdictions may issue similar codes, identifiers, or passwords. While these are generated at no cost by the government, Business Registration Center charges a service fee for:

  • Retrieving these credentials from government systems
  • Securing and safeguarding this sensitive information
  • Delivering the information through secure channels
  • Providing guidance on proper usage and security

Fee Justification: These service fees compensate Business Registration Center for the time, expertise, and secure systems required to obtain and deliver government-issued information that Users may otherwise need to retrieve themselves through government channels.

8.4 nstant and Automated Products

Business Registration Center may offer certain products or services that are generated, retrieved, processed, or delivered automatically or near-instantly through the Website, including through third-party systems, APIs, or government/registry data sources. These products may include, where offered, instant name searches, Nuans reports, document retrievals, or other automated products. Because processing begins immediately upon order placement, these products may be non-refundable as set out in Section 12.

10. SERVICE TERM AND TERMINATION

These Legal Terms shall remain in full force and effect while you use our Services or products. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, DENY ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES (INCLUDING BLOCKING CERTAIN IP ADDRESSES), TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FOR BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR COVENANT CONTAINED IN THESE LEGAL TERMS OR OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION. WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR USE OR PARTICIPATION IN THE SERVICES OR PRODUCTS AND ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION THAT YOU POSTED AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT WARNING, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION.

The Agreement of services or our products starts the day you request our services or products, and it can expire or terminate, depending on the nature of the product or service we provided.

Termination:

An agreement terminates when the parties do not reach the end of the agreement but one of them desires to terminate it because the other party violated the provisions of this Policy. Any refund in such circumstances shall be subject to Section 12 (Refund Policy), and fees designated as non-refundable in that section shall not be refunded.

In the following cases we may decide to terminate our services with you:

  • If you place an order with us but you violate our Agreement;
  • If we cannot verify your identity;
  • If we believe there is any suspicious activity on your part; and
  • If you do not provide the documentation we request from you in a timely manner.

Expiration:

When an agreement expires, it is the “end” of the contract and there cannot be a refund, as the agreement has already expired. The service is valid for a certain period and once the time arrives, the agreement expires.

11. SERVICE LIMITATION AND EXPIRATION

11.1 Suspension and Termination

In the case that Business Registration Center notices any issue with an order, and there are any possible risks, consistent and material violations of policies, Business Registration Center reserves the right to suspend or terminate the service if it is mandatory by law.

11.2 Abandoned Orders

In the event that Business Registration Center requires additional information or documentation from a User to complete an order, and the User fails to respond to our communication attempts, the following protocol shall apply:

Communication Timeline: When we require a response from the User to proceed with an order, Business Registration Center will contact the User via phone and email. If no response is received within seven (7) days of the initial contact, we will send a second reminder. If the User still fails to respond, a third and final reminder will be sent, which will include a deadline of an additional seven (7) days for the User to respond.

Order Abandonment: If the User fails to respond within twenty-eight (28) days from our initial contact attempt, the order shall be deemed abandoned and Business Registration Center will close the order. No refunds will be issued for abandoned orders, as the abandonment is due to the User’s failure to provide necessary cooperation to complete the Services.

Reactivation: Should the User contact Business Registration Center after an order has been deemed abandoned, we reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to refuse reactivation of the order. If we agree to reactivate an abandoned order, the User may be required to pay a reactivation fee in addition to any outstanding amounts before Services can resume from the point of abandonment.

12. REFUND POLICY

Thank you for choosing Business Registration Center. We strive to ensure that you are fully satisfied with our services and products. Before placing an order with us, please review this Refund Policy carefully.

If you wish to cancel your order, contact us as soon as possible. Refund eligibility is determined by the work completed at the time of your cancellation request, as outlined in the sections below. Certain fees are non-refundable regardless of when cancellation is requested.

12.1 Non-Refundable Fees

Order processing work, including payment verification, order authentication, and preliminary review, begins immediately upon order placement. For this reason, the following fees are non-refundable for all orders, regardless of order value, whether the order is ultimately completed, or the timing of any cancellation request:

  • Payment Processing Fees — These fees are included in your transaction total and compensate for payment processor charges incurred at the time of purchase.
  • Agency Fee (also referred to as Service Fee or Business Registration Center Fee) — This fee compensates for order intake, verification, and administrative processing that occurs immediately upon order submission.
  • Instant, Automated, or API-Delivered Product Fees — Fees for products or services that are generated, retrieved, processed, or delivered immediately or near-immediately upon order placement, including Instant Nuans reports, are non-refundable.
  • Name Search & Analysis Fees
  • Specialist Review Fees
  • NUANS Report Fees
  • Name Approval Fees
  • Document Retrieval Fees

Orders Placed in Error: The fees listed above are non-refundable even if you believe your order was placed in error, placed by mistake, or if you request cancellation immediately after ordering. Submitting an order constitutes acceptance of these terms.

Important: Business Registration Center is a private company, not a government agency. Belief that you were transacting with a government entity is not grounds for a refund of non-refundable fees.

  • The service requested is outside the scope of services offered by Business Registration Center, discovered after order placement
  • Business Registration Center lacks the legal authority to complete the requested service in the applicable jurisdiction

Refund of Agency Fee and Service-Specific Fees (Payment Processing Fees retained):

Not Eligible for Company-Initiated Refund:

The following are not grounds for refund under this section, as they are outside Business Registration Center‘s control:

  • Government rejection of a filing or application
  • Requested business name being unavailable
  • Information provided by the customer being incorrect, incomplete, or insufficient
  • Customer failing to respond to requests for required information or documentation
  • Customer changing their mind after order placement
  • Service processing time exceeding customer expectations

12.5 Chargeback & Disputes

In the event that a chargeback is initiated by a User for any of our Products or Services, the following procedures shall apply:

Invalid Dispute Grounds: The following are not valid grounds for initiating a chargeback or payment dispute, and Business Registration Center will contest any such disputes:

  • Order placed in error or by mistake
  • Immediate cancellation request after order placement
  • Belief that Business Registration Center is a government agency
  • Dissatisfaction with service speed or delivery time
  • Buyer’s remorse or change of mind

Chargeback Notification and Communication: Upon receiving notice of a chargeback, Business Registration Center will make reasonable efforts to contact the User through the contact information provided during the order process. We will attempt to resolve the matter directly with the User before proceeding with formal dispute procedures.

Dispute Response Process: If we are unable to reach a mutually acceptable resolution with the User, or if the User fails to respond to our communication attempts within a reasonable timeframe, Business Registration Center reserves the right to respond to the chargeback dispute through the appropriate payment processor channels. In responding to such disputes, we may provide relevant evidence including but not limited to:

  • Government documents prepared, submitted, or received on behalf of the User
  • Proof of any physical goods prepared or shipped
  • Email correspondence and order confirmations
  • Payment transaction details and receipts
  • Recorded phone conversations
  • Any other documentation relevant to the transaction

Dispute Resolution Outcomes: If the chargeback dispute is resolved in favor of Business Registration Center, the transaction and all related matters shall be considered fully resolved and the User will remain responsible for all amounts due. If the chargeback dispute is resolved in favor of the User, Business Registration Center reserves the right to pursue collection of any outstanding amounts for Services already rendered or products already delivered, including but not limited to referring the matter to a third-party collection agency and reporting the debt to credit bureaus as permitted by law.

Conditions for Dispute Resolution: As a condition of resolving any dispute, Business Registration Center reserves the right to require the User to enter into a Non-Disparagement Agreement. Such agreement may include provisions restricting the User from making negative, defamatory, or disparaging statements about Business Registration Center, its Services, Products, employees, or business practices on any platform, including but not limited to social media, review websites, or other public forums.
