Gift-Tech guide comparing Limited Company and Business Name registration
Business Name or Limited Company?

Understand the practical difference before you register.

This is a high-level decision guide. The right structure depends on ownership, risk, funding, contracts and long-term plans.

Structured company

Private Limited Company (Ltd)

  • Has a separate legal identity from its shareholders.
  • Uses directors and shareholders and receives an RC number.
  • Often better suited to businesses planning larger contracts, investment, multiple owners or structured growth.
  • Can hold assets, enter contracts and continue beyond changes in individual ownership, subject to company law.
  • Requires more formal statutory records and ongoing compliance than a Business Name.
Simpler structure

Business Name

  • Commonly used by sole proprietors or partnerships trading under a registered name.
  • Receives a BN number rather than an RC number.
  • Generally simpler to set up and maintain for small or owner-managed businesses.
  • The business is not a separate company limited by shares, so the legal structure differs from an Ltd.
  • Can be a practical starting point where the owner does not yet need a company structure.
Still unsure? Tell us your type of business, number of owners and what you plan to use the registration for. We can explain the practical options before you submit. This page is general information, not legal or tax advice.
