3. Fill out the Articles of Incorporation. You can get these online or at the registry.
4. Register your official address in a Notice of Address. It will need to be in Alberta. This is the address any legal documents will be delivered to.
5. Register a director in a Notice of Directors. You’ll need appoint or elect at least one.
6. Submit your application package at Gold Key Registry. It should include your articles of incorporation, notice of address, notice of directors, NUANS report, valid ID and fee payment.

We provide corporation dissolution services at Gold Key Registry to help you with this process.

What does NUANS stand for?

NUANS stands for Newly Upgraded Automated Name Search.

What is a NUANS report?

A NUANS report compares a suggested corporation name with a large database of Albertan and Canadian corporations.

Why do I need a NUANS report?

A NUANS report is required when incorporating (unless you’re using a numbered company) as you cannot incorporate with the same or very similar name as another existing corporation.

What is an annual return?

An annual return is essentially notification to the Government of Alberta that your business is still operating in the province. You can also update other important information like changes to directors or the corporation’s address. It is not the same thing as your tax return.
