What is an Ontario Annual Return?

An Ontario Annual Return (formerly part of the Corporations Information Act filing) is a mandatory update for all active Ontario corporations. Since the launch of the Ontario Business Registry in 2021, it keeps public records current with details like directors, officers, registered office address, official email, and business activities – completely separate from your corporate tax return (no financial info required).

Required under the Business Corporations Act, filing ensures your corporation stays in good standing. Missing deadlines can trigger late fees, loss of legal rights, and risk of administrative dissolution (cancellation) of your company.

We make filing simple: handle current or past-due Annual Returns 100% online as an official ServiceOntario intermediary – quick confirmation emailed, often same-day.

Ontario Annual Return Requirements

All Ontario Corporations: Including for-profit, professional, and not-for-profit entities incorporated or continued in Ontario

Deadline: Within 6 months after your corporation’s fiscal/taxation year-end (not incorporation anniversary)

Key Information Needed: Corporation number, company key, directors/officers names & addresses, registered office, official email, business activity (NAICS code)

Updatable Details: Change address, add/remove directors, update email or activities during filing

Missed Years: File previous returns easily to restore compliance and avoid dissolution

No Financial Disclosure: Only administrative details – fast and straightforward

Consequences of Non-Filing: Late penalties accumulate; repeated misses can lead to cancellation and loss of corporate status
