Corporate Name Searches for an Ontario Incorporation
A) NUANS Search Reports
Unlike the federal government, the Ontario government does not
'approve' your name before permitting you to register the corporation.
Thus, you are very much on your own. However, they do require that
you provide them with a 4N NUANS Search Report.
Recently, Industry Canada has made their database directly accessible
to the public, but this will not generate Reports that are acceptable
to the Ontario Government. These searches must be ordered through
intermediaries, sometimes called NUANS Search Houses. If you require
no assistance and feel confident in your abilities, you can find
Ontario NUANS Searches for as low as $30.00 on the Internet. If
that's all you need, we'd suggest you do a search for 'Ontario and
NUANS' on your favourite search engine.
