We offer Ontario incorporations because many of our clients want to locate their head office in central Canada. Ontario requires at least one Canadian-resident director.
7 Easy Steps to Incorporating in Ontario:
| 1 |
Choose three alternate names for the corporation with first, second and third choices. These names will need a NUANS search before the corporation can be filed. Unique names are more likely to be approved. Common or popular words are often rejected.
Note: You may choose a numbered company for faster results and change to a named company later. The Government automatically issues the numbers.
|
| 2 |
Choose the legal ending for your company to be either: Limited (Ltd.), Corporation (Corp.) or Incorporated (Inc.). |
| 3 |
If you wish, choose the date and time the incorporation is to take effect. |
| 4 |
Supply the full names and street addresses of the directors (one of whom must reside in Canada), officers and shareholders. |
| 5 |
Provide the Ontario street address for the corporation's registered office. Post office box numbers are not allowed. If you don't have an address in Ontario, we can arrange for an Ontario lawyer to act as registered office. Those fees are charged separately from the incorporation cost, and are currently approximately $100 plus applicable tax per year. Please let us know whether you need this service when you order your Ontario corporation. |
| 6 |
Decide upon a simple or complex share structure with common or preferred shares (Class "A" or "B" shares). We can help you decide what will be best. And remember that in most cases, the share structure of any corporation can be changed at any time with the consent of the affected shareholders for only a few hundred dollars in legal and government filing fees. |
| 7 |
Lastly, confirm with us that you wish to go ahead with your incorporation. |
