The SECP Company Name Search lets anyone check whether a proposed company name is already taken before starting incorporation. It offers exact-match, begins-with, and contains-string searches and is the first step ahead of formal name reservation.

How to check SECP Company Name Search online

Open https://eservices.secp.gov.pk/eServices/NameSearch.jsp (no login required to search).
Type your proposed company name in the search box.
Pick a search type - Exact Name, Beginning With, or Including Exact String.
Run the search to see whether identical or similar registered names exist.
If the name looks free, log in to SECP eServices to formally reserve it (name reservation process).

What you need

The name search itself needs no account. To reserve the name, use SECP eServices and its 'Forgot Password' option to reset credentials via your registered email/mobile.

Good to know: A clear search does not reserve a name - final availability rests with the Registrar of Companies. Complete Name Reservation in SECP eServices (using CNIC/passport as Login ID) to secure it.

Common SECP Company Name Search problems & fixes

Name shows as already taken

Try a distinctive variant; avoid prohibited/deceptive words and names too similar to existing registered companies or trademarks.

Search returns no useful result

Switch search type (use 'Including Exact String' for a broader check) and search the key word rather than the full proposed title.

Reserved name still rejected by Registrar

A search is informational only; comply with SECP naming rules and, if rejected, submit a revised name through the reservation process.
