This service includes the purchase of one sole proprietorship registration in British Columbia and an option to purchase a BC Name Reservation Report and/or an Federal Business Number Registration (HST number).

As part of this service we perform preliminary name searches first on all orders (for no extra cost) before we obtain a full search in order to eliminate a rejection of the name.  A preliminary name search report is about 90% accurate.  There is no guarantee that a name search report will be accepted by a government but we work to insure that it is.

BC NAME RESERVATION REPORT:

British Columbia requires a name search report upon registration.  They will allow for three names to be reviewed.  We will ensure that you have three pre-cleared names to submit so that you have a better chance for approval.

TIMING OF REGISTRATION

The BC government is taking 15 to 25 days to preclear a proposed name.  They will expedite the clearance for an extra $100.  If you need your registration before that you will need to choose expedited service.
