Register a Trade Name?

What is a Trade Name

A trade Name is the name under which you conduct your business, whether it be your own name, or the name of the corporation or a name adopted for a division of the company. The trade name can be registered under the Trade-marks Act only if it is also used as a trade-mark, that is, used to identify wares or services.
If you would like to use any name other than your corporate name you must register a trade name.

These are some important basic principles:

• There is no limit on the number of trade names, which may be registered by one corporation.
• Trade names are not "protected" from use by other companies through trade name registration. To protect your name you need to register a trademark.
• You must use your corporate name together with the trade name on all contracts and legal documents. (ABC Limited O/A Flowers for You)
