Jimmy Oppedisano Founding lawyer · Pronto Sommaire - New at the Enterprise Registrar - Accuracy required - Limits of the tool - Scope of the tool Since July 31, 2024, the Quebec Enterprise Registrar has allowed searches by first and last name, a tool that changes the practical transparency of the register. ## New at the Enterprise Registrar Since July 31, 2024, it is possible to search by last and first name at the Quebec Enterprise Registrar. By entering a person's name, you can see which entities they are associated with in Quebec, whether as a shareholder, officer, director or ultimate beneficiary. ## Accuracy required For the search to work, the last and first names must be spelled exactly. If an accent or a middle name is missing, the search will not detect the business the person is associated with. ## Limits of the tool Birth dates are not displayed, and it is not possible to specify a date of birth to filter the search. So if two people have the same first and last name, they cannot be distinguished other than by the declared residential address (unless a business address is declared to hide the residential address). ## Scope of the tool This search tool applies to incorporated companies, but also to any other entity registered with the registrar, including sole proprietorships, non-profit organizations, partnerships and commercial trusts.
