Is there an Alberta company that you wish to find out information about such as the names and addresses of the officers and directors of the company? Are you wanting to find out the official address of an Alberta company and who the President of the company is? You can find out this information by ordering what is called an Alberta company search or Alberta corporate search.
You will not be able to determine information about an Alberta sole proprietorship or an Alberta partnership from this type of report. If you wish to find out information about a partnership or a sole proprietorship registered in the province of Alberta, you need to obtain an Alberta Business Name Search.
The report will indicate the following (1) registered office of the company, (2) the names and addresses of the directors, (3) the names, titles and addresses of the officers, and (4) a list of all filings made on behalf of the company including articles of amendment, notices of change, annual return filings, etc. (5) the names of the shareholders (owners) of the company. Alberta expands the amount of information it is willing to provide for a company than most other territories and provinces. Other provinces do not track the ownership of companies.
A corporate search can be obtained for any company registered in Canada. In order to obtain a corporate search it helps to know what jurisdiction the company is incorporated in.
You will need to know the proper name of the company. If you do not know this you can as well write the contact person at the search house and tell them you are not sure and they can do a quick check for you to see what names are on file, prior to your spending your money. Every company including companies registered in Alberta have a corporation number assigned at the time of incorporation. In Alberta it is called an Alberta Corporate Access Number. It helps a lot if you can provide this number to the search house and will prevent an error occurring when the company is searched.
It is not possible to determine what companies an person owns by doing a search of that person. You also cannot determine what companies a person is a director or officer of either. You would need to know the name of the companies first to do the search.
Resources for Canadian Business Owners is a registered search house and can provide you with information about Alberta Corporate Searches and a Company Registration
