Introduction
If you are looking for your registered business number, the first place to start is with the Business Registry. The Business Registry is a database of businesses that is maintained by the government. You can search for your business in the Business Registry by business name, business address, or business owner’s name.
If you cannot find your business in the Business Registry, it is possible that your business is not registered with the government. If this is the case, you will need to contact your local Chamber of Commerce or Small Business Administration office to find out how to register your business.
What is a Registered Business Number (RBN)?
A Registered Business Number (RBN) is a unique number that identifies your business to the government. It is made up of 10 digits, and you can find it on your business registration Certificate of Registration. You need an RBN to:
-file your business income tax return
-remittance forms
-import/export permits
If you’re not sure if you have an RBN, you can call the CRA Business Window at 1-800-959-5525.
Why do I need an RBN?
If you are thinking about starting a business, or are already in business, you will need to register your business with the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Once you have registered your business, you will be assigned a Registered Business Number (RBN).
The RBN is important because it is how the government identifies businesses for taxation purposes. It is also how businesses access many government programs and services. You will need to use your RBN any time you communicate with government about your business, such as when you file your tax return or apply for a permit or license.
How do I find my RBN?
If you’re starting a new business, you’ll need to register for a Business Number (BN) with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). Your BN is your company’s tax identification number and is used for all dealings with the CRA, including filing your taxes and GST/HST returns. You can find your BN on any correspondence you’ve received from the CRA, or by contacting them directly.
How do I register for an RBN?
The Canadian government has a program called the Business Number (BN). The BN is a nine-digit number that gives businesses access to government programs and services. To register for a BN, you need to fill out a business registration form and send it to the Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA). The CRA will then assign you a BN.
What information do I need to register for an RBN?
To register for an RBN, you’ll need the legal name and mailing address of your business, as well as your business phone number, email address, and website (if you have one). You’ll also need to provide the name, address, and phone number of a contact person for your business. If you’re registering a sole proprietorship, you’ll just need your own contact information.
How much does it cost to register for an RBN?
If you’re starting a new business, you need to register for a Registro de Empresas (RBN or business registration number) with the Department of Economic Development. The process is free of charge. You can apply for your RBN online or in person at any DED office.
