Opening a Company in Canada: Choosing the Form of Ownership

If you have decided to register a business in Canada, we offer several options for forms of ownership:

  1. Business Corporation: A legal entity founded by one or two individuals. There are no requirements for the statutory capital.
  2. Branch: A model suitable for foreign companies deciding to conduct business activities in this jurisdiction or another country.
  3. Limited Liability Partnership: A form of ownership implemented by two individuals who want to jointly run a business. This option is considered advantageous as it has a zero income tax.

There is also a partnership that involves full responsibility. It is implemented by several partners who may have unlimited liability for any obligations of such a enterprise.

How to Register a Company in Canada: Taxation

The country has a standard taxation system, and there are no specific tax incentives. However, when registering a partnership, taxes are not required. This is because tax non-residents within the country are partners conducting their business in Canada. In the country's LP, tax agents are the founders of the partnership. Taxation of founders is carried out in the country of residence.

Important: The partnership does not use Canadian agreements on double taxation avoidance with other jurisdictions because LP is not a tax Canadian resident.
