La Malbaie: an established resort destination
La Malbaie hosts a developed hotel sector, a casino, inns, restaurants and four-season activities. The local economy depends largely on the capacity to welcome and accommodate visitors.
Hosting the public is heavily regulated
Running an accommodation business requires tourist authorization, safety and sanitation standards, often an alcohol permit, price display obligations, and extended liability toward guests and their belongings.
Add a large, seasonal workforce with the employer obligations that come with it. Concentrating all that on an individual is disproportionate: a corporation holds the permits, the establishment, the employment contracts and the insurance.
Online incorporation, reviewed by lawyers
Our pricing includes government fees. See our online incorporation guide or start your incorporation.

Provincial or federal for a La Malbaie business?
A tourism business operating in Quebec has no need for the federal regime, even with clients from around the world.
Transferring permits when incorporating
Accommodation authorization, alcohol permit and restaurant permit attach to the operator. When moving to a corporation, they generally must be transferred or reapplied for in the business name. That step takes time and must be planned before the transition.
Your obligations once incorporated
Annual updating declaration, a current minute book, a separate corporate tax return and resolutions recording major decisions.
Common questions from La Malbaie entrepreneurs
Should the building go into the corporation? Not necessarily. Many operators separate the property from the operation. That decision carries significant tax consequences to assess case by case.
