🇨🇦 Canada Certificates of Good Standing

Official proof of a corporation’s current legal status — verified and issued by government registries across Canada. A Certificate of Good Standing (also called Certificate of Status or Certificate of Compliance) confirms that a corporation legally exists, is active, and has met its filing obligations. With BizFile.ca, you receive government-sourced certificates fast, securely, and ready for banking, legal, or international use.

What is a Certificate of Good Standing? It’s an official certificate issued by the federal or provincial corporate registry confirming:

• The corporation legally exists under its governing Act
• Required filings and fees are up to date (e.g., annual returns)
• The corporation is active and not dissolved, amalgamated, or discontinued
• Jurisdictions may title it “Certificate of Status,” “Certificate of Compliance,” or “Good Standing”

Why it matters. Banks, regulators, investors, and counterparties often require an official certificate as proof of a company’s current legal standing — for financing, account opening, extra-provincial registrations, tenders, M&A, and due diligence. Unlike a Corporate Profile Report (detailed registry data), a Certificate of Good Standing provides formal certification of legal status.
