Revival of a Business Corporation

Bring your business back to life

___________

You had a business but it had been dissolved - now you want to revive it. We can help with that.

The revival of a business is the legal action of reforming or constituting a new business that had originally been dissolved. Once the revival application has been filed and accepted, you will receive a certificate of revival from the Registry confirming that your business has been revived.

Once your business is revived, it will keep the same business number as it had prior to dissolution. At that stage, the business will be deemed to never have been dissolved and will continue on with the same articles as those of the dissolved corporation.

Once a business corporation is dissolved, it becomes inactive. Reviving a corporation is the process used to reactivate the corporation’s existence. Once the corporation is revived, it will retain the same business number that it had prior to being dissolved.

The date of revival is the same date that appears on the Certificate of Revival.

Any interested person can apply to revive a corporation, namely:

  • a shareholder, director, officer, employee or creditor of the dissolved corporation
  • any person that was in a contractual relationship with a dissolved corporation
  • any person with a valid reason for revival, for instance a trustee in bankruptcy or the liquidator of an estate

In order to revive the corporation, we must:

  1. File revival application
  2. File annual returns
  3. Updating obligations of the corporation
  4. Payment of registry and government fees
  5. Request return of property from the crown

Once a Business Corporation is dissolved, it becomes inactive.

However, it is possible to revive an inactive corporation once certain obligations are complete, namely:

  • Filing of a revival application
  • Filing of annual returns
  • Updating obligations of the corporation
  • Payment of revival and registration fees
  • Request return of property from the crown
