Restrictions & Limits of a NUANS Report

 A NUANS report does not guarantee name approval. While it helps make sure that the name is unique, the final decision lies with the provincial or federal government.

It is important to remember that a NUANS report is only valid for 90 days. If your business name is not registered within this time, the report is void, you must request a new nuans report.

A NUANS report does not provide trademark protection. To protect your brand, you may also need a trademark registration.
