A Named corporation in Ontario is a particular kind of corporation that has a distinctive name and has been authorized by the government. No other corporation in Ontario is permitted to use the corporation's name
On the other hand, a Numbered corporation is a type of corporation that is assigned a unique number by the government instead of a name. This number serves as the corporation's legal name and distinguishes it from other corporations in Ontario.
The business owner has the option of registering their firm in Ontario as a named corporation or a numbered corporation. The decision to choose one type over the other depends on various factors such as branding, marketing, and personal preference.
