Companies House are running stronger checks on Company names which give a false of misleading impression to the public.
They can now reject an application to register a name where they have reason to believe.
- The name is intended to facilitate fraud.
- The name is comprised of or contains a computer code.
- The name is likely to give the false impression the company is connected to a foreign government or an international organisation whose members include two or more countries or territories (or their governments)
Companies House can also direct companies to change their name. If a company fails to change its name within 28 days, they can now determine a new name for the company, for example, changing the company name to its registered company number.
We can suppress a name from the register while a company responds to a direction to change its name.
These changes have been introduced under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act. For more information click the link https://bit.ly/3wumWRe
