The process of searching and registering a name on the Company and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) is not really a difficult one. It only requires you to press the buttons, and you would be provided with all the steps and details needed to make it work.<\/p>\n
CIPC has a name searching facility on their website that facilitates the searching process. The best way to know if a name is free is to actually submit it and then wait for a response from the commission. To have a smooth registration, make sure you have their requirements handy. Always be as descriptive and creative when creating a name so that it cannot be the same as any other registered company.<\/p>\n
Note:<\/strong> Make sure that you have enough funds available for the required transactions before filing your documents. Deposits may either be made at ETF payment, bank deposit, or the CIPC walk-in center in Pretoria.<\/p>\n You can find out if your deposit is reflecting by logging on to the CIPC website by doing the following:<\/p>\n Note:<\/strong> Only one name will be registered by CIPC. A name may consist of numbers, letters, certain special characters (only () @. \u2018), or a combination thereof.<\/p>\n When a company is registered without a reserved name, its registration number becomes the company name automatically subsequently. This is the fastest way to register a company. A company may be registered with or without a company name, as documented in terms of the Companies Act, 2008.<\/p>\n\n
