Can I legally start a bookkeeping business here in Canada even without a certification from an organization or years or experience?

Hi there and welcome to the QuickBooks Community!

 

I love that you're looking to venture into the world of bookkeeping as a career, and QuickBooks is a great software to become familiar with, and can even help you build clientele. Here in the Community, our team is trained to help support you and other QuickBooks users with the technical aspects of our software, so questions like these are a little outside our wheelhouse. I'd love to point you in the right direction to get the support you need though.

 

We have a great article that goes over the ins and outs of becoming a bookkeeper. I'd suggest giving it a ready through: How to Start a Bookkeeping Business. If you know any other bookkeepers, reaching out to pick their brains might be a great step as well. They'll be able to fill you in on how they got started, and might have some other helpful tips and tricks as well. We have a database of QuickBooks-certified Pro Advisors, some of which are bookkeepers, that may be helpful resources for you. You can navigate through the database to find bookkeepers in your area that may be able to give you a hand.

 

I'll leave this thread in the helpful hands of our dedicated Community contributors. There are tons of accountants and bookkeepers that frequent the forum and I'm sure they'll be a wealth of knowledge on this topic. Don't hesitate to drop a line here again if you have any further questions related to the technical side of QuickBooks. That's my area of expertise and I'm happy to help you out.

Have a great day and I wish you all the best in your new bookkeeping endeavours!
