Searching the Corporate Database
If you are using the Corporate Database for the first time, we’d like to provide you with basic search criteria information. A quick read through this section will give you an understanding of the system and the types of results you will receive.
Search Options
There are eight different searches to choose from:
- Entity name
- Individual’s name
- Identification number
- Filing number
- Agent’s name
- Business address
- Purpose
- NAICS code
Search Options (active or inactive)
- Active: The Corporation Information Management System (CIMS) holds all active entity records, names of registered non-resident landlords and other miscellaneous filings. The CIMS also holds the records of entities whose certificates of incorporation/formation/authority have been revoked for less than one year.
- Inactive: The Inactive Database holds all inactive entity records, including cancelled non-resident landlord registrations, and other inactive miscellaneous filings.
