As a general rule, you should validate is the name or a substantially similar name is not being used anywhere for a business in a related field. So, you want to look for more than just a trademark in more locations than just BVI. To start, you begin with extensive searching for your name or similar names on Google.

Lastly, if everything is clear, then you do a trademark search.
