By understanding the process and leveraging the expertise of a trusted partner like Taxes Hub Inc., you can navigate this complexity with ease.

Key Steps in Business Registration

1. Choose Your Business Structure: The first step is to select the most suitable structure for your business. Common options include sole proprietorships, partnerships, and corporations. Each structure has distinct advantages and disadvantages, so careful consideration is essential.

2. Choose a Business Name: A unique and memorable business name is crucial. Conduct a thorough search to ensure it's not already in use. Visit our guide on Choosing a Business Name.

3. Obtain a Business Number (BN): A Business Number (BN) is a unique identifier issued by the CRA. It's necessary for various business activities, including tax filing, payroll, and government programs. Learn more about Business Number Registration.

4. Register for GST/HST (if applicable): If your business exceeds certain revenue thresholds, you'll need to register for GST/HST.

5. Obtain Necessary Permits and Licenses: Depending on your industry and location, you might need specific permits or licenses to operate legally. Find more information on Permits and Licenses.
