Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a PBC and a private limited company?

The structures differ in governance, ownership terminology and suitability. The website comparison is educational; a consultant confirms the appropriate route for your circumstances.

Can a PBC have more than one member?

The permitted structure and member details should be checked against current registry requirements before submission.

Can a PBC apply for a TIN?

Tax registration is assessed separately after the business entity is in place.

Why is an eligibility review required?

Registry processes and transition rules can change. The review prevents a client from paying for a route that is not currently suitable.
