Extra-Provincial Registration in Alberta
Already incorporated outside Alberta? If your corporation needs to carry on business in Alberta, you'll need to register extra-provincially. We make the process easy with lawyer review and ongoing support included.
What is Extra-Provincial Registration?
When a corporation is incorporated in one Canadian province or territory and wants to carry on business in another province, it must register in that province. In Alberta, this is called extra-provincial registration.
This applies to corporations incorporated in British Columbia, Ontario, Saskatchewan, or any other Canadian province or territory. It also applies to federally incorporated corporations that want to operate specifically in Alberta, and to foreign corporations.
Extra-provincial registration does not create a new corporation. Your existing corporation remains governed by the laws of its home jurisdiction. Registration simply gives it the legal right to carry on business in Alberta.
