Business Name Registration
Your business name is one of the most important parts of your business. In all likelihood, your business name will be part of your advertising, your logo, be featured on your business cards and letter heads and even be the first words out of your mouth when answering a phone call from potential customers. Therefore it is clearly important to carry out a business name registration.
You've probably already given some though to what you want to call your business. It's important to use something snappy and memorable. You want potential clients to remember it and tell their friends how brilliant your services and products are. Before you can get that far you need to register your business name in order to protect it.
Business Name Registration – Limited Companies
The most common way to do this is to register the name as part of completing a company formation. Registering your business name in this way ensures that no one else can use it as their own and thus potentially damage any good will and reputation that you have established.
The Company Warehouse is proud to be the first UK based Company Formation Agent to offer business registration from as little as FREE! In a matter of hours, you can get your business name registered, protected and ready to use.
Business Name Registration – Other Businesses
Carrying out a business name registration is not something exclusive to company formation. If you decide that you wish to set up a Limited Liability Partnership in order to run your business, then you will be pleased to know that you can carry out an effective business name registration for this as well. LLP's must be registered with Companies House in much the same way as limited companies. In doing so, a business name registration is carried out and the name is entered on a register. LLP business name registration is carried out on a first–come, first–served basis, so it is important to quickly register your chosen business name to stop someone beating you to it. Take a look at our Limited Liability Partnership page for more information.
Trade Mark Protection For Registered Business Names
It's important to remember that business name registration will not offer you total protection. Other individuals or businesses could well use your name for their products or services or in another way. In order to get the best protection it's a good plan to register your logo and/or company name as a Trade Mark.
