Ex Officio Striking Off

The enterprise registrar can strike off the registration of any business that, despite notice, fails to produce two consecutive annual updating declarations (Déclarations de mise à jour annuelles).

Similarly, the enterprise registrar can strike off ex officio the registration of any business that fails to produce an current updating declaration (Déclaration de mise à jour courante) as required by the Act respecting the legal publicity of enterprises.

In both cases, the striking off can be revoked.

The enterprise registrar can also strike off ex officio the registration of the following:

Any component of an amalgamation or split-up of legal persons or business corporations.

Any general or limited partnership that produces a notice of dissolution (Avis de dissolution), notice of appointment of a liquidator (Avis de nomination d’un liquidateur) notice of closure (Avis de cloture). 

Any business corporation, or legal person constituted in Québec, on filing an act of dissolution in the enterprise register.
