Before you start   

How to update your business name  

  • You’ll need to visit a branch or contact your Relationship Manager (if you have one) to update your business name.

    You’ll need to provide:

    1. Evidence of the name change 

    2. A written request signed by your organisation members 

Evidence of name change

  • You’ll need to provide one of the following:

    • Certificate of Registration on Change of Name

    • Certificate of Incorporation

    • Certificate of Registration of Business Name

    • Certificate of Registration for an unincorporated association

    • Deed of variation for a trust

    • Signed minutes of meeting for an unincorporated association

     

    You don’t need to provide documentation if you’re only updating the suffix of a Statutory Trust Account. For example, you’re changing “John A Smith Family Trust” to “John Smith Family Trust”.

Written request

  • You’ll need to provide a physical written request on a business letterhead. It should include:

    • ABN and/or ACN

    • Current address, email address and phone number 

    • New business name

    • New business logo (if applicable)

    • Reason for the name change

    • A list of accounts to be updated (BSB and account number) 

    You’ll need to get your organisation members, like your directors, to physically sign the letter. We don’t accept electronic signatures.
