THE Pharmacy Guild of Australia has advised that from 31 Oct 2018 businesses will no longer be allowed to trade using unregistered "trading names" other than the name of their legal entity.
The National Business Name Register was introduced in May 2012, along with a transition period of more than five years to allow businesses to decide whether to register their names or not.
However to continue using a different "trading name" after the end of Oct 2018, businesses have to register them, the Guild said, with further information available at business.gov.au.
