The new Societies Act of British Columbia (the
"New Act") came into force on November 28, 2016.
All societies incorporated under the predecessor legislation, the
Society Act of British Columbia, must transition under the
New Act by November 28, 2018.
All non-share corporations incorporated outside of British
Columbia that carry on activities in British Columbia must register
with the Registrar of Companies of British Columbia under the New
Act by November 28, 2018.
If your non-share corporation is already registered under the
predecessor legislation, the Society Act of British
Columbia, then the registration will automatically be carried
forward under the New Act.
