Choosing a business name is a crucial first step. Your name should be unique, memorable, and comply with federal or provincial regulations. It must not mislead customers or be too similar to existing registered names or trademarks. At Wio Accounting, we help you conduct thorough name searches and ensure your business name meets all legal requirements before registration.
Before registering, it’s important to verify that your chosen name is not already in use or trademarked by another company. Additionally, your name should reflect your business activities clearly and avoid prohibited or restricted terms.
Our business registration service guides you through these legal and branding considerations to help you pick a name that protects your business identity.
