Expanding your business into Canada may be a tremendous opportunity to serve a vibrant and growing market of Canadian consumers.
Expanding into Canada for an already-established foreign business is quite straightforward. Each province has registration procedures (and fees) for extra-provincial incorporation.
If you’re non-Canadian currently operating your own business in India for instance and wish to expand it and open a business in Canada, you need to register your business as an extra-provincial corporation in that province. Extra-provincial registration is a process of incorporation in Canada that both Canadian corporations in Canada and foreign corporations have to go through when they seek to do business in Canada or in various provinces or territories throughout Canada.
If the company you wish to start in Canada is a partnership, you will need to register your partnership in the province or territory you are going to do business in. Contact the provincial registry of the province you want to do business in and go through its required procedure.
