Inc. vs. Ltd. vs. Corp.
What’s the Difference?
Corporations registered in Canada are generally required to have a corporate name that includes all of the following elements:
- a descriptive element (something that describes the business);
- a distinctive element (something that makes the name unique); and
- a legal element (confirming to the public that the business is officially incorporated).
In the name "Ace Furnace Repair Ltd.", the word "Ace" is the distinctive element, "Furnace Repair" is the descriptive element, and "Ltd." is the legal element.
Although the options available for the descriptive and distinctive elements are almost limitless, the list of available options for the legal element of a corporate name in Canada are typically limited to the following:
- Limited or Ltd.
- Incorporated or Inc.
- Corporation or Corp.
