Knowing how to fill out a DBA is critical if you plan on doing business under any name different from your original registered name. DBA stands for doing business as and can also be referred to as a:
- Trade name
- Fictitious name
- Assumed name
If you wish to operate under any name other than the name that you legally filed your business under, you will be required to file for a DBA. A DBA will allow you to operate and perform financial transactions under the different name. With a DBA, you can also exclude the necessary legal endings such as Inc, Corporations, or LLC. This can make the name easier for customers to remember and easier to market.
