Adding a Trade Name to Your Corporation

A trade name, also called a DBA (doing business as) or operating name, lets your corporation do business under a name other than its legal name. For example, 123456 N.B. Ltd. could operate as “Moncton Cleaning Services”.

Why Register a Trade Name?

Use a brand name that is easy for customers to remember
Open a bank account and accept payments in the trade name
Run more than one brand under the same corporation
Stay compliant, since operating under an unregistered name is not permitted

What You Need

Your corporation’s legal name and number
The trade name you want to register
A NUANS report for the name, if required (we can order it for you)
