FLLP · Name Reservation · Renewal

Reservation / Renewal of Name (FLLP) reserve and renew your Foreign LLP name in India.

End-to-end services in Mumbai and across India for reservation and renewal of name of a Foreign LLP — reserving and renewing the name of a foreign Limited Liability Partnership establishing a place of business in India, with the prescribed ROC filing under the LLP Act 2008.

A Foreign LLP, or FLLP, is a limited liability partnership incorporated outside India that wishes to establish a place of business within India. Before such a foreign entity can proceed with its India registration, it must first reserve its name with the Registrar of Companies, so that the name under which it intends to operate in India is secured and free of conflict with existing names.

The reservation of name for a Foreign LLP is done through the prescribed application to the Registrar, and the reserved name is valid for a limited period. If the FLLP is unable to complete its registration formalities within that validity window, the reserved name must be renewed before it lapses. Allowing the reservation to expire means losing the secured name and starting the reservation process afresh, which can delay the FLLP’s India entry.

Our practice handles the complete name reservation and renewal process for Foreign LLPs — conducting the name availability check, preparing and filing the name reservation application with the Registrar, tracking the validity period, and filing the renewal application in good time so the reserved name does not lapse. We help foreign LLPs secure and protect their India name smoothly as part of establishing their place of business in India.

Frequently Asked Questions

A Foreign LLP, or FLLP, is a limited liability partnership incorporated outside India that intends to establish a place of business within India. Before proceeding with its India registration, an FLLP is required to reserve the name under which it will operate in India.

A Foreign LLP reserves its name so that the name under which it intends to carry on business in India is secured with the Registrar of Companies and protected from conflict with existing companies, LLPs, or trademarks before the FLLP completes its India registration.

A reserved Foreign LLP name is valid for a limited period prescribed under the LLP rules. If the FLLP cannot complete its registration formalities within that period, the reserved name must be renewed before it expires.

If the reservation of a Foreign LLP name is allowed to lapse without renewal, the secured name is lost and the FLLP must apply for name reservation afresh, which can delay the process of establishing its place of business in India.

An FLLP name is reserved by checking name availability and filing the prescribed reservation application with the Registrar of Companies. Renewal is done by filing the renewal application before the validity of the reserved name expires.
