27 Rights and interests in names

(1) Nothing in this Part requires the Registrar, when determining whether to
incorporate, continue or convert a company under a name, to register a
change of name or to direct a change of name, to —

(a) make a determination of any person‘s interest in a name, or the
rights of any person concerning a name or the use of a name,
whether the interest or rights are alleged to arise under Seychelles
law or any law in a jurisdiction other than Seychelles; or

(b) to take account of any trademark, or equivalent right, whether
registered in Seychelles or in a jurisdiction other than Seychelles.

(2) Subsection (1) does not prevent the Registrar taking into account any
matter specified in that subsection when determining whether, in his
opinion, the registration of a company name is, or would be, objectionable
or contrary to public policy or to the public interest.

(3) The registration of a company under this Act with a company name does
not give the company any interest in, or rights over, the name that it would
not have, apart from this Part.
