  • What is My Business Account and how do I register?

    My Business Account is a secure online portal that provides an opportunity to interact electronically with the CRA on various business accounts. Business accounts include GST/HST (except for GST/HST accounts administered by Revenu Québec), payroll, corporation income taxes, excise taxes, excise duties, and more.

    You can register for My Business Account using your CRA user ID and password or through a sign-in partner.

    If you haven’t set up your user ID, visit: Registration process to access the CRA sign-in services

    What you’ll need to register:

    Steps:

    1. Create a CRA user ID and password if you haven’t yet
    2. Enroll in mandatory multi-factor authentication (telephone or passcode grid)
    3. Register for a business number if you do not have one

    Note: The CRA has introduced a new way to register for digital services, including My Business Account—the Document Verification Services (DVS), making it easier than ever to sign up. This secure method validates your identity in real-time, granting immediate access without the delay of waiting for a mailed security code. For more information on DVS please visit How can I verify my identity without a CRA security code?
