Yes. You can incorporate your business directly with the Registraire des entreprises du Québec (REQ) at www.registreentreprises.gouv.qc.ca or with Corporations Canada at www.ic.gc.ca, paying only the official government fees ($397 provincially in Quebec; $200 federally, plus $397 for provincial registration in Quebec).
Our service, provided by the law firm Droit Légal, is for entrepreneurs who would rather hand the process to legal professionals — to save time, avoid mistakes and get personalized legal guidance on choosing a structure, drafting the articles, by-laws and organizational resolutions, and preparing the corporate minute book. You are paying for our legal expertise and our turnkey service — not for privileged access to the government.
