Reserving a Company Name: What You Need to Know

Choosing a company name is a key part of establishing a new venture. Here is what you need to know. 

Choosing a company name is a key part of establishing a new venture. If you’re not yet ready to register the company but want to secure the name, reserving it with ASIC provides peace of mind while you finalise your plans.

What Is Company Name Reservation?

Company name reservation allows a proposed name to be held for a period before registration. This ensures the name remains available while you prepare supporting details, documents, or structuring decisions.

  • Names can typically be held for two months
  • Extensions may be available if more time is required
  • Reservation ensures no other company can register under the same name during this period

Overview of the Process

  1. Check availability – The ASIC register helps confirm the name’s availability and compliance
  2. Submit a reservation application – This can be lodged online or via an authorised provider
  3. Receive confirmation – Once approved, the name is reserved exclusively for that period
