Once a company has been incorporated, it must file a report annually to maintain its active status. As a small business owner, filing an annual return is one of your most important administrative duties. A reminder form is sent out annually by Corporate Registries prior to the anniversary of the company’s incorporation.
The annual return ensures your corporate information remains current with Alberta Corporate Registries. If your annual return is not filed, the corporation will ultimately be dissolved.

You must file the annual return by the last day of the month of the anniversary of the registration month. For example, if your corporation was registered in April, you should file your return by April 30.

An annual return is a mandatory filing that businesses are required to submit to the relevant government authority (such as the corporate registry) on a yearly basis. It provides updated information about your business, including details about directors, officers, and addresses. Filing annual returns is crucial to maintain your business’s legal status and ensure accurate public records.
The deadline for filing an annual return is usually determined based on your business’s anniversary date of incorporation or registration. You can file your annual return in person at Registrations Are Us.
Failing to file your annual return on time can have serious consequences. Your business might be considered in default, which can lead to the potential dissolution of your business. Additionally, being in default might affect your business’s ability to access government services, apply for loans, or maintain a good business credit rating.
Amendments are changes made to your business’s registered information, such as changes in address, directorship, or business name. Common amendments include updating your business’s address, adding or removing directors, changing the business name, or altering the share structure. To file an amendment, you usually need to complete the appropriate form and submit it to the relevant government authority, along with any required fees.
