Registration of an existing corporation in a province or territory outside its incorporating jurisdiction.

In practice

It does not create a second corporation. Federal incorporation does not remove every provincial or territorial registration obligation.

What to check next

Read the extra-provincial guide and the destination registry’s instructions. Keep each local registration identifier clearly labelled.
