Incorporation Service for $35 in Canada, Filed by a CPA Firm
Open your corporation for $35, HST included. We prepare and file federal and Ontario corporations, numbered or named, and a Chartered Professional Accountant reviews your share structure before anything is filed. Government fees are passed through at cost on their own line.
Open a Corporation for $35, Not Hundreds
Many incorporation services charge a few hundred dollars before the government fee is even added. Our professional fee is $35, HST included, whether you incorporate federally with Corporations Canada or provincially in Ontario. The only other cost is the government filing fee, which we charge at cost with no mark-up.
Low price does not mean a form-filling shortcut. Open Corporation for $35 is a department of Gondaliya CPA, so an accountant looks at who owns the shares, who sits on the board and where you will actually do business, and drafts the articles around your tax position rather than a template.

Federal or Ontario Incorporation: Which Fits Your Business?
Both cost the same $35 with us. The right choice depends on where you trade and who sits on your board.
| Question | Federal (CBCA) | Ontario (OBCA) |
|---|---|---|
| Government filing fee, online | $200 | $300 |
| Total with our $35.00 fee | $235.00 | $335.00 numbered, $360.00 named |
| Name protection | Across Canada | Ontario |
| Resident Canadian directors | At least 25 per cent | Not required since 5 July 2021 |
| Separate NUANS report | Not needed for a straight federal filing | Needed for a named corporation, dated within 90 days |
| Annual return | Within 60 days after each anniversary, $12 | Within six months of each fiscal year end, no fee |
| Registration in other provinces | Required in each province where you carry on business | Required outside Ontario |
If you will only ever operate in Ontario, or your board has no resident Canadian, an Ontario corporation is usually simpler. If your brand needs protection nationally or you expect to trade in several provinces, federal is often the better start. We explain the trade-off in writing before you pay.
