Display of historical trading name

The ABR stopped collecting or updating trading names in May 2012. Trading names that were collected prior to 28 May 2012 will continue to be displayed on ABN Lookup but are only provided for historical reference. Businesses not operating under their own names must register their business name on the national Business Names Register.
