Trade name rejected on Single Window

Our proposed trade name keeps getting rejected. Why?

The situation

Trade names are reserved through the Single Window and checked against existing names and naming rules.

The law

  • Commercial Registry Law (renewal and changes): Renew within 30 days before expiry; notify changes within 30 days; entry can be deleted 90 days after notice if not renewed

What it means for you

Common causes are names too close to existing ones or words that need approval. Submit three options. A rejected name delays the CR, so check availability first using the name search.

What to do

  1. Search the name first.
  2. Prepare three options.
  3. Avoid restricted words.
  4. Resubmit.
