Great company

I've been with the National Business Register for over 15 years to protect my business name. Unfortunately in 2009 someone was using my business name. Contacting the relevant department they swiftly and professionally resolved the matter. Many thanks to all at NBR for their help.

Very helpful and professional service

We were recently recommended Corin Elliott for assistance with business name protection. He provided a very helpful and professional service throughout and he went above and beyond to ensure we received all of the information we required. The process to register our business was seamless and we would not hesitate to recommend Corin and Start Biz to other businesses looking to protect their business name.

I recently obtained a registered trademark for my business through the company. They are a fantastic and very helpful team who provide the best possible options for your business and also guide you through the process of getting things in place according to your needs. I mainly liaised with Michaela and Mitch, both of whom I can definitely commend as they simplified and streamlined things for me to understand and action.

Would highly recommend to any start up businesses

I contacted Mitch Willmott at Start.biz recently with a trademark query and to gain some general advice about IP and what I need as a start up business. He honestly could not have been more helpful. He answered all my queries quickly and explained things really clearly. Mitch met with me for a free chat over a coffee to discuss my business and I found it invaluable. He was really easy to talk to and made an absolute novice understand a little more about IP and trademarking. I would highly recommend Mitch to anyone seeking advice.

We have placed our trust in NBR for nearly three decades and will continue to do so!

Our trademark is our most valued asset, and Start.Biz (National Business Register) protects our business by taking care of all our trademark registration needs.
Over 25 years ago, we placed our trademark needs, both domestic and global, in their hands, and we have received exemplary first-rate service ever since. Through Start.Biz, we have successfully protected our brand and prevented others from using similar signs or counterfeit goods from reaching our marketplace.
Mr Willmott has personally provided us with excellent and flawless continued support. Our business is more robust and better protected because of his knowledge, vigilance and guidance.
