Business Registrations - What if my name has already been taken?

-          CIPC requires company names to be unique and deemed to be appropriate by the CIPC. The most common reason for a proposed name being rejected is that it is already being used by another registered company.

 

-          If the suggested names that you submit to us have all been taken, we will send you an error message advising you of this and requesting contact so that you can provide further name selections. In such cases, it is advised to make use of the CIPC name search above to help guide your selection process.
