DBA (Doing Business As)

Register Your Business Name. Legally operate your business under a trade name — we register your DBA (Doing Business As) or fictitious business name with your state or county so you can market, sign contracts, and open bank accounts under your chosen name.

What This Service Includes

We file your DBA (Doing Business As) or fictitious business name registration with your state or county, allowing your existing LLC, corporation, or sole proprietorship to legally operate and conduct business under a different trade name. We confirm name availability before filing, prepare your registration documents, and deliver your official DBA certificate — so you can open a business bank account under your trade name, sign contracts, and market your brand without forming a new legal entity.

Common Questions,
Clear Answers

A DBA (Doing Business As) is just a trade name - it doesn't create a separate legal entity. Your LLC or corporation is the legal entity; the DBA is simply an alternate name you can use for marketing or operations. You still operate under your original entity's legal structure.

No, you use your existing entity's EIN for DBA operations. A DBA doesn't create a new legal entity, so no new EIN is needed. All income and taxes are still reported under your main business entity's EIN.

DBA registration periods vary by state and county - typically 5 years, though some are shorter or require renewal every 1-2 years. Some locations require periodic renewal filings. We can track your renewal dates and remind you when it's time to renew.

Yes! One business entity can register multiple DBAs. This is useful if you operate different product lines or services under different brand names. Each DBA requires its own registration filing and fees.
