Tariff / 2026
A flat service fee plus the government fee, shown separately so you see exactly what you pay. No hidden charges. Sales tax applies to the service fee only, never to the government fee, at the rate of your own province. Prices below show Ontario HST at 13%.
Every price shows the service fee and government fee separately, so there are no surprises at checkout.

Sales tax is charged on the CorpStart service fee only, at the rate for the province you live in: 13% HST in Ontario, 5% GST in Alberta and British Columbia. The figures on this page show Ontario rates. Government filing fees are pass-through disbursements and are not taxed by us. The NUANS name search is included at no extra charge, so a named corporation costs the same as a numbered one. Annual return filing is a separate service.
No add-ons, no upsells. Everything below is covered by your flat service fee. The government filing fee is the one thing that is not ours: we collect it and remit it at cost, on its own line, at the amount the registry charges.
Government filing fees are remitted directly to the Ontario government (OBCA filings: $300) or Corporations Canada (CBCA filings: $200) on your behalf. They are non-refundable once a filing is submitted.
CorpStart is a document preparation service, not a law firm, and does not provide legal advice. For complex corporate structures, consult a qualified Ontario lawyer or notary.
