# Brand name clearance before you commit

Source: https://luatbanquyen.com/en/services/brand-name-clearance · Updated: 2026-08-28

Checks a name on all four fronts — trademarks, company names, domains and social media handles — before you print packaging and start advertising.

Successfully registering a company name does not mean you may use it as a trademark: the two systems sit with different authorities and different databases. Rebranding after you have market recognition is the most expensive outcome in this group.

- **Who may perform this:** Industrial property representative working with a branding team
- **Timeline:** Typically 3–7 working days for one batch of names
- **How pricing works:** Quoted by the number of candidate names and the markets to be checked.

## Deliverables

- Clearance results across trademarks, company names, domains and social handles
- A risk ranking for each candidate name
- An action list to secure the chosen name immediately

## What you provide

- The list of names under consideration
- Your line of business and target markets
