In Hong Kong, a business name is defined as the name that a business uses in operation. A business name can be different from a trademark used by the business for identification and promotion of products and services (as offered by the business). Do note that registering a business name does not guarantee that other person’s registered trademark will not be infringed – especially when the business name is similar as or confusingly similar to the existing registered trademark.

Is Hong Kong Company Name Check Necessary?

Generally, company names are doled out on a first-come, first served basis. If your proposed company name has been registered or proposed to be registered by another company, the application of that company name will be rejected. In addition to this, you might run into trademark issues if your company and other’s fall within the same category or are confusingly similar. You might be liable for trademark infringement or trademark dilution if your company name is substantially similar to the existing company name.

As such, running a Hong Kong company name check on Hong Kong company name availability has become a necessary step to rule out the possibilities of duplication as well as to ensure the availability of the name that you select. The company name check is particularly important to your branding strategy that can distinguish your brand from other existing brands or business names.
