Register a Company Name

All businesses in Canada must register their business name within their provinces or territories except for sole proprietorships that use only the owner’s legal name without any further additions. Beyond that, all other forms of business ownership, including partnerships, must register their business names as a legal requirement, with the exception of Newfoundland and Labrador to this general rule; in those provinces, you do not have to register the name of sole proprietorships or partnerships at all.
