How do I choose between a Master Business License and Incorporation?
A Master Business License is for sole proprietorships or partnerships in Ontario. Incorporation creates a separate legal entity with liability protection and tax benefits.
How long does the registration process actually take?
Most Ontario Master Business Licenses and Trade Names are processed in as little as one business hour. Federal or provincial incorporations typically take 1–2 business days.
What is the difference between a Trade Name and a DBA?
In Canada, they are essentially the same. A Trade Name (or “Doing Business As”) allows an existing corporation to operate under a different brand name without forming a new company.
Do I need to be a Canadian resident to register a business?
For a Master Business License or Sole Proprietorship, residency is generally required. For Federal Incorporation, at least 25% of directors must be Canadian residents.
Can RegiCorp help me with my annual filings after registration?
Yes, we provide ongoing support for annual returns and minute book updates to ensure your business remains in good standing with the government.
What is the main benefit of a Sole Proprietorship?
It is the most cost-effective way to start, offering total control and simple “pass-through” taxation for your personal income.
Can I change a Sole Proprietorship to a Corporation later?
Yes, many owners start this way and “roll over” into a corporation as their revenue and liability risks grow. This transition allows you to start with lower costs while keeping the door open for future tax benefits.
Is my personal property at risk in a Sole Proprietorship?
In a Sole Proprietorship, there is no legal separation between you and the business. This means you are personally responsible for all business debts and legal obligations, making it vital to have proper insurance.
Do I need a separate tax return for my business?
No, all business income and losses are reported directly on your personal T1 income tax return, making year-end filing much easier.
