7-Step Process
How It Works
1
Jurisdiction
You choose where you want to incorporate: Tobuso supports incorporations and extraprovincial registrations in the following jurisdictions: federal (Canada), Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, New Brunswick, and Saskatchewan.
2
Name
You start by choosing a name for your company; then search a national database to see whether the name is already taken. If not, it can be reserved for you.
3
Incorporation
An incorporation application is completed based on the information you have, and submitted to the appropriate government agency.
4
Organizing
Corporations are obligated to carry out post-incorporation organizing steps, including initial shareholder and director resolutions, passing by-laws, and more.
5
Extra-Provincial Registration
If you incorporate a federal (Canada) corporation, or if you plan on carrying on business in a province other than the jurisdiction of incorporation, then you must register your company to carry out business in such province(s).
