Business Name Pre-Approval

Yes. A name report having exact conflict or partially conflict with an existing name won't work. We avoid this problem by conducting a pre-search for your proposed business name. If your proposed names are not available, we will contact you and ask for another name (up to 3 names) at free of cost).

Of course. Our agency has direct access to the federal name database and provincial government name database. All reports are valid and can be verified with Corporations Canada.

A name must have two elements; a distinctive (unique) element, that can't be common or popular English words. It should be a unique name or made up words. The Second part is the descriptive element that normally describes the organization. The name may or may not have a suffix (no obligation) such as foundation, association, institute, society etc.

If your purpose is to use this name to incorporate (limited liability company), choose any one of the legal suffix. All of them have the same legal meaning, choice is for appearance purpose only. If your purpose is to use this name for sole proprietorship or master business license or trade name/business name registration or non-profit organization, choose the option "none".

Only one or two major activities should be sufficient. The description could be very brief (in a single line).
