Canada Business Incorporation & Operations Start Plan

Rise Partners specializes in remote incorporation services and also provides support for any additional services you may need after incorporation, all handled remotely.

In Canada, there are two primary types of corporations: 1. Federal Corporation: This type of corporation allows your business to operate across all provinces and territories in Canada. However, depending on the specific circumstances, filing annual reports and additional administrative requirements may result in more demanding management. 2. Provincial Corporation: This is suitable for businesses operating within a single province. It generally has lower registration and maintenance costs with simplified management. However, expanding to other provinces requires additional registration, so it’s important to consider the scope of your business activities. We provide customized consulting services to help you select the most appropriate option based on the size and scope of your business activities.

Yes, they can. In specific provinces, such as British Columbia, corporations may be created with all directors being non-residents. However, federal corporations and some provinces require a minimum of 25% of directors to be Canadian residents. Rise Partners delivers expert support for non-residents, ensuring a seamless incorporation process and compliance with all applicable regulations.

Generally, the essential documents for incorporation include the articles of incorporation, the company name, and information about the shareholders and directors. Additionally, you may need to prepare documents such as a shareholder agreement, a business plan, or materials required for license applications. Rise Partners assists in preparing the necessary documents, customized to align with the specific requirements of your business.

Opening a bank account is one of the essential steps after incorporating a company in Canada. Rise Partners, through its partnerships with local banks, assists with remote pre-account setup. Additionally, we provide further support, such as issuing corporate credit cards and guiding international transfers, if required.

With Rise Partners’ virtual office services, you can incorporate and operate a company without the need for a physical office. Our virtual office service goes beyond simply providing a local business address—it also supports efficient company operations through business mail management and other essential services.
