The difference between a business and a company name

For many businesses, the name you trade under is not the same as your initial company name registration. You may not have decided on the best trading name for your business when you completed your company registration or your business may be taking on a new direction. Business name registration allows you to legally operate under your chosen trading name, regardless of what your registered company name may be.


Do I need to register a business name?

If you want to trade under a different name to your company’s registered name, you’ll need to register it as a business name. A couple of examples are below.

Needs to register a business name:

Elite Plumbing Group Pty Ltd trading as Elite Plumbing Group.

or

Elite Plumbing Group Pty Ltd trading as Plunger & Co.

Doesn’t need to register a business name:

Elite Plumbing Group Pty Ltd trading as Elite Plumbing Group Pty Ltd.
