Business Number (BN) Registration Canada - Your Questions Answered
Do I need a GST/HST account right away?
You must register for GST/HST once you exceed $30,000 in worldwide revenue over four consecutive quarters (or sooner if you choose voluntarily). We confirm the right timing for your business.
What program accounts do I need?
It depends on your activities: payroll (if you have employees), import/export (if you trade across borders), and GST/HST (if registered). We open only the accounts you need.
Can you register a sole proprietorship or a corporation?
We handle both. We confirm your structure and complete the BN registration and any provincial registration needed for that structure.
