Before approving a new corporate name, most provincial and territorial governments require a Nuans report. The Nuans report is a list of existing corporate and business names, as well as trademarks, that are similar to the one being proposed. A Nuans report helps avoid choosing a name that is already in use.
Nuans reports list similar corporate names and trademarks, except for names in Quebec. A Nuans report is valid for 90 days. If the 90-day period has ended, you must order a new Nuans report to submit.
Getting a report does not mean that your proposed name has been approved. It simply means that the name has been reserved for you for 90 days while it is being reviewed for approval. The approval process varies by jurisdiction.
