Registration in the province of Alberta

alberta_1.jpgDo you want to start a business in Canada? There are some nuances depending on a region.
Let's consider certain important points.

A national test for entrepreneurs, developed in Canada, is advisable to be passed by everyone who is going to open own business in the country. Upon completion of the test, the government assesses your business potential and sends recommendations.

How to establish an offshore company in Alberta? In Canada, there are four main types of organizational and legal forms:

  1. Sole proprietorship.
  2. Partnership.
  3. Corporation.
  4. Cooperative.

Full list of legal forms is published on the website of the corporate register of the region.

CHOOSING A NAME

Choice of name will depend on the organizational and legal form of a company. If, for example, you open a Sole proprietorship and use your name as a company name without any other words, you do not need to register a business in Alberta.

To manage a Sole proprietorship under a different name, enter it in the regional register of legal entities.

Remember that you can not register a name with the words Bank, Trust, Insurance.
