Read the official guidanceChoose and check a name
A named Alberta corporation generally needs an Alberta Nuans report. A registry-assigned numbered corporate name does not. Trade names may be duplicated and registration does not settle trademark rights.
Read the official guidanceIncorporate or register
Submit articles, address and director notices, agent-for-service information, identification and payment through an authorized service provider. Include a Nuans report when required.
Read the official guidanceUnderstand government fees
The province confirms that government and service-provider fees both apply. Obtain an itemized quote. No numerical incorporation fee is asserted here because a current product catalogue was not verified.
Read the official guidanceKeep up with annual filings
File the corporation’s annual return through an authorized Corporate Registry service provider. The province sends a reminder before the incorporation anniversary; failure to file may lead to dissolution.

Read the official guidanceHow should you interpret a match?
Match the legal name and identifier, then check status and the date of the information. Registration does not guarantee solvency or trustworthiness. If there is no result, check spelling, previous names and the incorporating jurisdiction.
