Business Registration
To register a business, you must use the Government of Ontario webpage. It is no longer possible to register a business in person at Service Ontario. You can find a link to register your business here. It is important to ensure that you have completed a name search through the business registry, as well as in other locations such as google, to make sure you have chosen a unique business name that is not already in use. You could be infringing on someone’s intellectual property rights if the business name is in use. Learn more here.
