Corporate Profile Report

Get a Complete Snapshot of a Corporation

A Corporate Profile Report provides detailed information currently available for a corporation.

 

It is commonly requested when you need to verify a company's information before entering into a business relationship.

 

A Corporate Profile Report may include:

✓ Legal business name
✓ Corporation number
✓ Date of incorporation
✓ Current status
✓ Registered office address
✓ Directors and officers
✓ Previous filings and corporate changes

 

Common Reasons to Order a Corporate Profile Report:

  • Verify a company before signing a contract

  • Confirm corporate information for suppliers or customers

  • Complete business due diligence

  • Review a corporation before purchasing a business

  • Update internal business records

  • Provide information to accountants, lenders, or advisors​

Certificate of Status

Confirm That a Corporation Is Active

 

A Certificate of Status (also commonly called a Certificate of Good Standing or Certificate of Compliance) confirms whether a corporation is currently active with its government registry.

 

This document is often requested by:

 

✓ Banks

✓ Investors

✓ Government organizations

✓ Licensing bodies

✓ Business partners

 

A Certificate of Status provides confirmation that a corporation exists and remains in good standing according to the registry where it was incorporated.

Copy of Articles of Incorporation

Need Your Original Incorporation Documents?

 

Articles of Incorporation are the documents originally filed when a corporation was created. If your corporation was incorporated years ago and you no longer have the original documents, we can help you obtain a copy.

 

A Copy of Articles of Incorporation may include:

✓ Original corporation name

✓ Incorporation date

✓ Registered office information

✓ Initial directors

✓ Share structure details

✓ Original incorporation provisions

 

Please note: Articles of Incorporation are historical documents. If you need the current information about a corporation, a Corporate Profile Report is usually the better option.
