Company Name Check in UAE ᐅ Make the right choice!

ᐅ How can I perform a company name check in the UAE?
We provide guidance on performing a company name check in the UAE through various online portals managed by the Department of Economic Development (DED). You can access these services to verify the availability of your chosen company name in Dubai and other emirates.

ᐅ What is the process for a Dubai company name search?
The process includes visiting the DED’s website, navigating to the business name search section, and entering your desired name to check its availability. If the name is available, you can proceed with the registration process, which we can assist you with at Cassius Law.

ᐅ Is there a specific procedure for checking company name availability in Dubai?
Yes, the procedure is straightforward. You enter your proposed name into the DED search tool. If the name is already in use or too similar to an existing name, you will need to choose a different one. Our firm can help you brainstorm and validate potential names.

ᐅ What are the common reasons for a company name rejection in the UAE?
Common rejection reasons include names that infringe on existing trademarks, names that are deemed offensive, or names that do not comply with UAE naming conventions. We can offer expert advice to ensure that your chosen name meets all necessary requirements.

ᐅ Can I reserve a company name in the UAE?
Yes, you can reserve a company name for a certain period while you complete the business registration process. Our team at Cassius Law can assist you with this reservation process to ensure that your preferred name is secured.

ᐅ What is the difference between a Dubai business search and a UAE business search?
A Dubai business search is specifically for companies based in Dubai under the jurisdiction of the DED, while a UAE business search encompasses all emirates. The protocols may vary slightly by emirate, and we can guide you through the nuances of both searches.

ᐅ How long does it take to get a response from a company name check in the UAE?
The name check process is typically instantaneous through the online platform. However, if you encounter issues or need clarification, our team is here to respond quickly and help resolve any delays.

ᐅ What steps should I take if my desired company name is not available in Dubai?
If your desired name is not available, consider modifying it by adding a descriptive term or changing its order. We can assist you in generating alternative names that uphold your brand identity and comply with UAE regulations.

ᐅ Do I need a trade license to check a business name in Dubai?
No, you do not need a trade license to check the availability of a business name. However, once you find an available name, obtaining a trade license is a crucial step in the company registration process, which we can facilitate.

ᐅ What are the legal requirements for a company name in the UAE?
Legal requirements include ensuring the name does not violate any trademarks, is not offensive, and includes a legal form indicator (e.g., LLC for limited liability companies). Our legal experts at Cassius Law can ensure your company name adheres to all legal requirements.

ᐅ Can I change my company name after registration in the UAE?
Yes, you can change your company name after registration, but this involves a formal application process with the DED, including necessary documentation. We can guide you through this process to make it as smooth as possible.

ᐅ Why is conducting a company name check crucial before registration?
Conducting a company name check helps avoid rejections during the registration process, saving time and potential financial loss. It's a critical step we emphasize at Cassius Law to ensure your business foundation is solid and compliant.

Having a similar name can lead to legal disputes and complications in the registration process. We recommend a thorough search to avoid such issues, and our team will help you identify distinct names that set your business apart.

ᐅ What resources can I use for a Dubai trade license name search?
You can utilize the official DED website or other government portals for conducting a trade license name search. We also provide personalized assistance to help ensure you understand all available resources and requirements.
