Frequently Asked Questions
What is a sole proprietorship and who should choose it?
A sole proprietorship is the simplest business structure where you own and run everything yourself. It’s perfect for freelancers, consultants, side hustlers, or anyone starting small who wants full control and easy setup without partners or complex rules.
Do I need to register a sole proprietorship in Canada?
You generally need to register if you’re operating under a business name other than your legal personal name. If you’re just using your own name, registration isn’t always required in every province, but registering provides legal recognition, helps with banking, and ensures compliance when doing business across Canada.
What is a trade name or DBA, and why register one?
A trade name (or DBA – “doing business as”) lets you operate under a professional or catchy business name instead of your personal or legal name. It’s essential for branding, building customer trust, and legally protecting your alias, especially for sole proprietors, partnerships, or corporations wanting a different operating name.
Who typically needs a trade name/DBA registration?
Freelancers, online sellers, consultants, small service providers, or any business wanting market recognition beyond a personal name. It’s also useful for corporations adding a secondary brand or for partnerships operating under a shared name.
What is a general partnership and when is it a good fit?
A general partnership involves two or more people sharing ownership, responsibilities, profits, and decisions. It’s ideal for small teams, family businesses, joint ventures, or professionals like tradespeople partnering up for collaborative projects without incorporating.
Do all partners share liability in a general partnership?
Yes, in a general partnership, each partner has unlimited personal liability for the business’s debts and obligations. This means one partner’s actions can affect everyone’s personal assets, so clear agreements and trust are key.
Can I register these business structures in any province or territory?
Yes, our service handles registrations nationwide – just select your province during checkout. Business rules vary by province (like name searches or specific forms), but we manage the provincial requirements for sole proprietorships, trade names, and general partnerships.
What documents or information do I need to provide?
You’ll typically need your personal details (name, address, contact info), the desired business name, a brief description of your activities, and partner info if applicable. We guide you through it – no complicated paperwork on your end.
Will registration help me open a business bank account or invoice clients?
Absolutely – most banks and clients require proof of registration for a business account, professional invoicing, or contracts. It gives your venture a legitimate, compliant foundation right away.
Do I need a separate CRA Business Number (BN) after registration?
Provincial registration often links to or supports getting a federal BN if needed (for GST/HST, payroll, etc.). If your revenue hits certain thresholds or you hire employees, you’ll register for CRA accounts separately – we can advise on next steps.
Can I change from a sole proprietorship to a partnership later?
Yes, as your business grows and adds partners, you can update your structure. It involves notifying authorities and possibly new registration – starting simple now keeps options open without hassle.
Is my business name protected once registered?
Provincial registration helps prevent others in your province from using the same name and supports your brand legally. For broader or stronger protection (nationwide), consider a federal trademark later.
