Register a General Partnership in New Brunswick
A General Partnership is an excellent option for two or more individuals starting a business together. This structure allows partners to share responsibilities, profits, and decision-making—either equally or based on a mutually agreed arrangement.
At Startup Support Plus, we make the registration process smooth and efficient. Once your business is officially registered with the provincial government, you’ll receive your proof of registration by email. That means you can start operating with clarity and confidence.
Where Can You Register?
Our General Partnership registration service is currently available in New Brunswick. We take care of the government filings and all necessary documentation to keep your business compliant with provincial laws.
Whether you’re setting up a new partnership or renewing an existing one, we’ll guide you every step of the way.
Choosing a Business Name
As part of your registration, we conduct a free name pre-search to confirm whether your proposed business name is available.
If the name is already taken, you’ll be asked to submit up to three alternate options.
Note: A NUANS Report may be required depending on the name. If you already have one, you can upload it during the application process.
Business Activity & Address Requirements
You will need to describe your primary business activity (e.g., retail, consulting, personal services).
Keep in mind that a physical address in New Brunswick is required. Provincial registries do not accept PO boxes or virtual office addresses.
Partner Information: What You’ll Need
A General Partnership must have at least two partners, and you can list up to five.
For each partner, be prepared to provide the following:
-
Full legal name
-
Phone number and email address
-
Residential address
-
Current occupation
If a partner shares the business address, just check the appropriate box on the form.
CRA Business Number and Related Accounts
Already have a CRA Business Number? Just let us know.
If not, we can assist with setting up:
-
A Business Number (BN)
-
GST/HST account
-
Payroll account
-
WorkSafeNB registration, if applicable
These optional services ensure your business is fully prepared to operate legally in New Brunswick.
