Order the official Canadian corporate record: corporation number, jurisdiction, status, registered office and directors, in minutes. From €9.99.

Canada has no single incorporation register: Corporations Canada handles federal entities, and each province and territory runs its own. The same trading name can exist federally and provincially as unrelated companies. Verification therefore starts by pinning the corporation to its jurisdiction — which is exactly what our resolution step does before fetching the record.
Status is the second thing to read: corporations that skip annual returns drift toward administrative dissolution, and a dissolved Inc. can no longer stand behind its contracts.
Legal name, corporation number, jurisdiction and date of incorporation, current status, registered office and directors as published by the registry — delivered as structured data plus a branded PDF report you can file directly with KYC or vendor-onboarding paperwork.
Yes: it decides which registry holds the authoritative record. A federal corporation is on Corporations Canada's register; an Ontario, BC or Quebec company is on its provincial one. We resolve the entity in its jurisdiction of incorporation and deliver that record.
No. The nine-digit BN is a CRA tax account identifier; the corporation number is assigned by the incorporating registry. Both may appear on invoices, and confusing them is the most common Canadian verification mistake.
Corporate registries publish directors for most jurisdictions — the corporate profile typically lists current directors and the registered office. Shareholders, by contrast, are generally not on the public record.
