You may
elect to reserve or register a business name prior to registering
a new business entity. This service is for business entities
other than sole proprietorships and partnerships.
First
you must determine that the business name is available, and then file
to hold the name by submitting a paper
form. Foreign (non-New Jersey) corporations must also submit by
FAX a standing certificate from their home state within 21 days of
filing for the name registration. The standing certificate must be
current and issued no more than 30 days prior to the name registration
filing.
Domestic
corporations will have the name reserved for 120 days. The name registration
for foreign corporations will last until the end of the calendar year.
Remember
- reserving a business name does not register the business entity.
You will still need to register your business either online or by
submitting the paper forms. It is important to note that online business
registration is not available if you have reserved or registered the
business name.
Fees:
$15.00
per name for Name Availability.
