RUN — Name Reservation & Change — Checked. Reserved. Confirmed.

Name availability search and reservation through the RUN service for new company incorporation or change of an existing company's name, filed with the Registrar of Companies.

Book Free Consultation

RUN (Reserve Unique Name) is the web service used to check availability of, and reserve, a company name — whether for a new incorporation or for changing the name of an existing company. A name that is too similar to an existing company or trademark is a common ground for rejection.

At N D Savla & Associates, we run the proposed name against existing company and LLP names and relevant trademark classes before filing, draft the objects and significance of the name, and handle resubmissions where a query is raised.

Where the application is for an existing company, we coordinate the RUN filing with the subsequent special resolution and RoC filing needed to complete the name change.
