  2. identified Sep 24, 2025, 03:51 PM UTC

    Name requests for companies in British Columbia are not currently being processed due to the temporary closure of the BC Registries. The closure is a result of ongoing job action affecting multiple government ministries. Note that numbered incorporations, companies with an existing approved named request, and any post-incorporation filings are not impacted. We apologize for the inconvenience and will update as new information becomes available.
