longer. Where it is permitted by the
government, there is same day Registering for an extra

What is a DBA or Trade Name?
First,
a Company, or Trade Name Certificate, or DBA /
D.B.A. Doing Business As Statement is the same
as a DBA Statement, an Assumed
Business Name Certificate, and a Ficticious Firm
Name. The term is sometimes misspelled:
fictious, ficticous, ficticious, etc. All of
these business, or trade names are just business
name certificates / statements that must be Registered if
the business owner (individual, partnership,
corporation) is doing business in a name other than
its own legal name.
What is the
General DBA Law?
Registration or
Registering of a Trade / Assumed Business Name.
In general, you are required by law to notarize
(some states)
register (Register)
and publish (in some states) a
DBA statement,
(otherwise called a Trade Name Certificate,
DBA Doing Business As Statement, an Assumed Business
Name Certificate, or a Ficticious Firm Name)
if the business name is a name that is different from the
name of the proprietor, partnership or corporation
doing business with that name.
Example 1: You are
Boss Gorge doing business under the trade name "Get
all the Oil" - you need to register the DBA trade name
"Get all the Oil". Example 2: You are Holly Burton
Corp, doing business under the trade name Robem & Cheetem - you need to
register the DBA assumed name "Robem & Cheetem"
under the corporation. In addition, if the business name
includes the name of the owner and implies
additional owners (for example: "Dick Chen &
Associates Fly-By-Nite logistics",) you are required to register a
DBA as "Dick Chen &
Associates Fly-By-Nite logistics".
Benefits
of Registering your DBA:
-
Can use the
Courts to bring a lawsuit under the business
name.
You can enforce
any contract that you sign under a registered name.
-
Can open a bank account
in the name of the business -
banks require that you show proof of
business name registration.
-
May prevent others from using your
business name. In some states Registering creates a rebuttable presumption that
you have rights to that name ( but you probably
need a trade mark to protect the name.
However, in
general, you do acquire some rights to the
business name associated with a specific
product or service that you provide using
the business name in the region that you
provide the service or sell your product.
