Names for my Business Ideas
If you need to change your business name or address, you’ll have to file a dissolution notice with the Corporate Registry. The form you fill out and the associated costs will depend on your business type:
Proprietorship
To change the address of a proprietorship, you will need to complete the Dissolution or Change of Proprietorship Registration form. Sections A, B, C (including registration number), D and H must be filled out (in duplicate), and the form must be mailed directly to the Corporate Registry. There is no cost to change the address of a sole proprietorship.
