## My company name was rejected — what now?

Last updated: 15 October 2026 Answer from Robo Company Secretary How we write answers

Two options: submit an alternative name, which is why we file three ranked options in the first place, or appeal with justification and any consent letters the objection requires. Appeals take time and don't always succeed; a second name usually gets you incorporated faster than winning an argument about the first.

Also asked as: name rejected resubmit; appeal ssm name decision; nama syarikat ditolak apa nak buat; rejected name application ssm.

### Key facts

- Alternative name or appeal with justification/consents
- Appeals are slower and uncertain
- Filing 3 ranked options avoids the cycle
