Are you looking for a bigger market to invest in? Canada has one of the strongest economies in the world, making it one of the best places to live and do business in.

Did you know that Canada allows non-residents to open a business or expand an existing foreign corporation in the country? An extra-provincial registration allows you to bring your successful business to Canada and take advantage of a thriving market to grow in.

Ontario Business Central is here to help non-residents like you start a successful business in Canada. If you are not in Canada, we can act as your agent of service and process the registration on your behalf. In this video, we go over the extra-provincial corporation registration process and provide you with everything you need to know to get started.

Registering your foreign business as an extra-provincial corporation allows you to operate a successful global brand in Canada. But before you do that, you’ll need to map out these details in a solid business plan that clearly outlines what market demand your business can fulfill in the Canadian market. Once that’s ready, you can proceed with your registration.

To register as an extra-provincial corporation in Canada, you will need the following information:
The name of your business or corporation
Home jurisdiction and address of your corporation’s head office
A business address in Canada
Certificate of Status from the home jurisdiction
The name and contact information of your agent for service, which Ontario Business Central can act as.

To proceed with the registration, you will also need a NUANS report. By running a NUANS search, our team can identify existing businesses, corporations, and trademarks with the same or a similar name currently operating in Canada. This helps makes sure that the Canadian headquarters of your global business will be named uniquely to avoid infringing on names already in use and avoid confusing customers.

Once these documents are ready, we can submit them on your behalf. A key part of this process is coordinating mailing with your team, so we can file your documents for extra-provincial registration with original signatures.

If your registration is approved, your business will be registered as an extra-provincial corporation. At this point, you can start setting up operations in Canada. Our team can also assist you with obtaining your Business Number Registration from the Canada Revenue Agency and setting up Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) and payroll accounts to help with tax reporting.

With Ontario Business Central helping you at every step of the way and handling the entire registration process on your behalf, you can launch a successful global brand in Canada without the hassle of traveling and filing all of these documents on your own. As your agent of service in the country, we’ll set up your extra-provincial corporation quickly and correctly, so you can focus on promoting your business and serving new customers in Canada.

Ontario Business Central brings over 25 years of experience in providing businesses in Canada and around the globe with the tools they need to succeed in this market. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff is always available to answer questions and process your registration.
