What is a DBA?

 A "DBA" ("Doing Business As") is an official and public registration of a business name. The business may be a sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, limited liability company (LLC), or any other type of business entity. DBAs are also known as Fictitious Business Names, Assumed Names, and Trade Names. DBAs are most commonly filed for one of two purposes: to register a business name for a non-state-level business entity (such as a sole proprietorship) for purposes of conducting business, marketing and/or banking; or to register an alternate name for a state-level entity (such as a corporation or LLC) that intends to conduct business under names other than or in addition to its legal name. In many cases DBA registrations are required by law or by banking institutions. Even when not required by law, anytime an individual or company is using a business name in commerce it is wise to file a DBA.
