Hi.

I am looking to register a company name in the UK.

The company was a multinational company a long time ago and was sold off.

The name was dropped a year ago and now the company who bought the rights to use the name has gone into liquidation.

This company traded under a different name and only have the name of the company I wish to set up as a _link_ to go straight into their website.

The company name is still registered with companies house.

Can I look at using this name at some point and the brand or will I need to look at adding some additional wording to the name.

Is there any legal issues with this as I intend to trade within the same sector.

Many thanks


Charlotte

If you are trading in the same sector I would keep well away from the name. Even if you weren't, why associate yourself with a name which is being used elsewhere, even if only as a trading name ? Use something completely different.

Yes agree with really good post thanks for answer

You need to do Government Procedure to register your name and it differs from country to country.

Company FAQs have been involved in starting businesses for over 20 years and have a good understanding of the types of questions people have before they begin to register a company name.

Company FAQs aims to provide relevant information in a clear, concise and friendly manner so that those who do not have access to formation resources of accountants or other professional advisors can get it right, first time.

Within the site you will find information on the different types of companies, guidance on appointing a company director, secretary, and subscriber, using nominees, the role of Companies House and company formation agents, banking and how to register for VAT and corporation tax.

In addition, there are also resources to help you run your new company such as keeping statutory books and records and having a virtual office for those who wish to ease the transition from employment to running of a company on a full-time basis.
