Do you have to register a business name?

27 December 2022 By papmall®

Yes, if you want your business to be protected by the law from anyone who may use that name in the future. 

Registering for a business name is a crucial part of a company’s branding strategy in order to help the brand appear more recognizable and trustworthy in customers’ eyes. Registering a business name will display your company's name on:

  • The official office and website;
  • Stationery, business cards, and office forms;
  • All promotional and marketing materials;
  • Your business formation documents, such as an LLC's Articles of Organization or a corporation's Articles of Incorporation;
  • All commercial loan papers;
  • Perhaps the domain name for your company's website;
  • Every legal contract and agreement;
  • And more.

A business name is registered with the municipality and state in which it is located. If the company does business under a different name, it must file a fictitious name ("doing business as") statement.
