Guidelines to Choose Right Format of Business
Well, “Business Registration” is a very generic term. In Canada, a business can be registered in the above five formats. Here is a quick explanation and guidelines for you to choose the right form of business for you.
BC Corporation
A company incorporated under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act is called BC Corporation. A BC Corporation is a separate legal entity from its owners which offers limited liability to its shareholders. To incorporate in BC you must be above the age of 18 and have a physical address in British Columbia. There is no residency requirement.
The incorporation process: fill out a simple online form on our website, after that our registration agent will verify the payment and review the order to ensure an error-free application. For a named company he will conduct a name search and obtain a name approval. Next, we prepare the application and articles of incorporation and send you a draft for a final check. Once approved, we register the corporation and email registration documents to you. Finally, we complete any additional services included in the package, such as an initial return and CRA accounts.
BC Sole Proprietorship
A BC Sole Proprietorship refers to a business owned and operated by one individual in the province of British Columbia. Unlike a corporation, a sole proprietorship is not a separate legal entity, the owner is personally liable for all debts and obligations of the business.
The registration process: fill out a simple online form on our website, after that our registration agent will verify the payment and review the order to ensure an error-free application. Next, we register a Sole Proprietorship. You will receive a final business registration statement with a business registration number (BIN) by email. Afterwards, other services such as GST/HST account, CRA business number etc. will be emailed.
BC Trade Name
A Trade Name, also known as a "doing business as" (DBA) name or an operating name, is any name used by a business entity or individual that differs from their legal name. Filing a trade name does not establish a new business – a trade name is simply a nickname for the business you already have.
The registration process: fill out a simple form on our website, propose a business name – it must have 2 elements: distinctive and descriptive. Once we verified the payment, we will conduct a name search and obtain name approval. Next, we register a trade name.
