NEBSCorp.ca offers Canadian business owners, start-ups and entrepreneurs a “Pre-search” of the NUANS database. NUANS is an advanced search system that searches corporate and business registries across Canada, with over 8,000,000 records of corporation names, business names and trademarks. It is the most comprehensive business name database in Canada. It includes the Federal corporations database, most provincial corporate and business name databases as well as the Canadian trademark databases.
In order for you to register or incorporate your business, a “NUANS Report” is required by the Federal and most provincial governments. This NUANS Report is used to determine the availability of a corporate/business name by searching the NUANS database and listing any similar or possibly confusing existing corporation names, business names and trademarks.
Pre-searches save you time and money by eliminating proposed names with exact matches before you pay for a NUANS Report. Why spend money on multiple reports, conduct pre-searches to help determine name availability.
Limitations of Pre-search
Pre-search only conducts an “exact match” search of the name you are submitting.
Pre-search is NOT intended to find names that are phonetically, visually or physically similar.
Pre-search is not does not replace the NUANS Report.
Once you have completed your NUANS pre-searches order a NUANS Report with NEBSCorp.ca!
