LENGTH OF REGISTRATION
The registration will stay in place for five years. We will contact you at that time to see if you wish to renew it. You can also contact us if you need to cancel it for some reason.
PARTNERS
Only the general partner is put on the public record. The limited partners are confidential to the public.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the General Partner is a corporation, LLC, LP or LLP then it MUST first be registered in Ontario BEFORE the limited partnership can be registered. This is a separate service.

HST/GST (Harmonized Sales Tax/Goods & Services Tax) Account - this tax must be charged on all Canadian sales when the worldwide sales of the proprietorship are over $30,000.
Import/Export Account - If you will be doing this then you will require a tax account to be opened.
Payroll Account - If you have any Canadian employees you will be required to open this account.
