The Business Registrations and Licensing Agency (BRELA) is now implementing online service for the Registrations of Business Names, Industrial Licenses, Companies, Trade and Service Marks and Patents. The Online Registration System (ORS) allow users to send new applications and process post registration matters for Companies which have already updated their Company information in the Online Registration System (ORS). Thus, it is important to have data of all Companies uploaded by the respective officers of the Company before the system can allow a Company to perform post incorporation activities.
