Survey on Business Names Renewal | Deadline: May 15, 2022
Participate in the Business Names Renewal Consultation to share your thoughts on the potential for a required business name registration renewal process with the corporate registry.
The Corporate Registry holds information on all corporations, partnerships, and businesses. Initial research suggests that many business names registered with the Corporate Registry belong to non-operational businesses. Currently, there is no process to remove the names of these non-operational business entities from the Corporate Registry.
A renewal process would ensure that the Registry is up-to-date for people and businesses, and there is greater access to names for new businesses in B.C.
For more information, visit the consultation website and read the letter from the Deputy Minister of Finance.
Your feedback can be submitted through the online survey or by writing to biz.consult@gov.bc.ca. The deadline is May 15, 2022.
