Amalgamate a Non-profit Corporation

In order to amalgamate a non-profit corporation in the Corporate Registry application you will need to know your:

Reserved Corporate Name (Reservation Number)

  • Instead of reserving a name, you may choose to use one of the predecessors' names. 
    • For vertical short form amalgamations, a predecessor name must be used.  Specifically, the name of the holding corporation must be used.
  • If completing a long form amalgamation or a horizontal short form amalgamation, you may choose to:
    • reserve a new name for the amalgamated entity, or 
    • select a numbered name.
Note: For a horizontal short form amalgamation, the newly amalgamated entity cannot use the name or the articles of the holding corporation.

Amalgamation Details
  • The amalgamating businesses (entity numbers).
  • The predecessor whose articles will be used for the amalgamated entity.

Articles
 
  • This includes entity dates (amalgamation date and fiscal year end date), nature of activities, member details (share details), authorized number of directors, restrictions, and/or articles of attachment.

Registered Office
  • Physical address (location of Registered office which must be a Saskatchewan address).
    • The registered office physical address cannot be a P.O. box number.
  • Mailing address.
  • Email address.

Director/Officer Information

  • Includes first/middle/last names, physical address, and mailing address of directors/officers. An email address may also be provided, but it is not required.
  • The role, director and/or officer must be identified.
    • For officers, the office held must be provided.
Power of Attorney
  • Only required when there is not a director or officer with a physical address in Saskatchewan, but a Power of Attorney may be optionally appointed if there is a Saskatchewan-resident director or officer.

Filing your Non-profit Corporation Amalgamation

    1. New numbered name – this name will default to a nine digit number, ‘Saskatchewan’ and a legal ending that you select.
    2. Predecessor name – select the name of one of the existing non-profit corporations.
    3. Reserved entity name – you may have reserved a new business name for your amalgamated non-profit corporation. Here you enter in your business name reservation number. (This number can be found in your 'My Activity' page).
    • Click ‘continue’.
  • Complete the application and submit.
    • Please ensure that you have included an articles attachment as well as a statutory declaration attachment in .PDF format.
