Being incorporated federally means your company has incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act (CBCA). It allows you the privilege of doing business in all provinces and the territories as well under the same business name.
To incorporate federally, you will be required to file your Articles of Incorporation with Corporations Canada, decide if you will be a numbered or a named company, and provide information such as directors and a Canadian address. If you’re deciding on a name, you will also require a NUANS report.
This will depend on what you’re trying to accomplish. If you’re going to conduct business in several provinces or if you’re going after nationwide name protection, federal incorporation would be a perfect option. If you’re keeping local, provincial incorporation may be sufficient.
Federal incorporation has a number of benefits: your business name will be protected nationwide across Canada, expanding into other provinces is simpler, and it can enhance your credibility with customers and business partners.
Federal incorporation provides your business name protection throughout Canada, whereas provincial incorporation only protects your name in a given province. Federal businesses may operate on a nationwide basis but must be registered provincially where they conduct operations.
Not at all. The procedure is simple—particularly if assisted by an incorporation service. It usually takes most applications 1 to 2 working days.
Only if you’re naming your business. A NUANS report confirms whether or not your proposed name is available throughout Canada. If you’re a numbered company, you don’t need to do this step.
It will take 1-2 business days when everything has been submitted. It will be quicker when ordering the rush service.
Indeed you can—although you would be required to register your business in each province you will be doing business in. Federal incorporation simplifies the process.
Federal incorporation suits entrepreneurs who wish to secure a federal name, expand nationwide and even from province to province, or make their organization appear more serious to business associates, customers, or investors.
