Incorporate Your Business in Canada Online

A corporation is a separate legal entity from its owners. Once incorporated, the corporation can enter into contracts, own property and other assets, incur liabilities, operate a business, and conduct transactions in its own name.

Incorporating can also provide an organized legal structure for operating a growing business and can help separate the corporation’s obligations from those of its shareholders, subject to applicable Canadian laws and any personal guarantees or other circumstances that may create personal liability.

With Ecompanies Canada, you do not have to navigate the incorporation process alone. We help you prepare and submit the information required for your corporate registration and guide you through the process step by step.

Choose Where You Want to Incorporate

Canadian businesses can incorporate federally or under the corporate legislation of a particular province or territory. If you are a Canadian resident establishing a business in the province or territory where you live, you can select the jurisdiction that best fits your business needs.

How Does Canadian Incorporation Work?

The incorporation process generally involves selecting an appropriate corporate structure and jurisdiction, choosing a corporate name or using a numbered corporation where available, preparing the required corporate information, and filing the incorporation documents with the appropriate government registry.

Depending on the jurisdiction and the type of corporation being established, information relating to the corporation’s registered office, directors, incorporators, and share structure may be required.

Ecompanies Canada helps you navigate these steps and prepares the registration process based on the information you provide.

Corporation Ownership and Shareholders

A corporation is owned by its shareholders. A small private corporation may have only one shareholder, while other corporations may have multiple shareholders.

Shareholders generally have rights associated with their shares, which may include rights to receive dividends when declared and to participate in certain corporate decisions, depending on the corporation’s share structure and applicable corporate legislation.

Directors of a Canadian Corporation

Directors are responsible for overseeing the corporation and making decisions in accordance with applicable corporate legislation and the corporation’s governing documents. Directors have legal duties to the corporation and must exercise their responsibilities appropriately.

The number and residency requirements applicable to directors can vary depending on whether you incorporate federally or under a particular province or territory. Before incorporating, it is important to make sure that your proposed directors meet the requirements of the jurisdiction you select.

Why Incorporate Your Business?

For many Canadian entrepreneurs, incorporation can provide a formal structure for operating a business and can support future growth, ownership changes, financing, and other business activities.

A corporation is also legally separate from its shareholders. This separation can provide limited liability protection in many circumstances, although incorporation does not eliminate all potential personal liability.

The appropriate structure depends on your business, activities, ownership, tax situation, and long-term plans. If you are unsure whether incorporation is right for you, you should obtain independent legal or tax advice before proceeding.
