The Iowa Trade Name Form is a document that must be filled out and submitted to the Iowa Secretary of State in order to register an assumed business name for use in the state of Iowa. It is used to register a trade name, also known as a fictitious name, assumed name, or DBA (“Doing Business As”) name, for a business entity that is not using its legal name as the business name. The Iowa Trade Name Form is available in two forms: an electronic form and a paper form. The electronic form is completed and submitted online, while the paper form must be printed and sent to the Iowa Secretary of State by mail, fax, or email. Both forms require the same information, including the name of the business, a description of the business, the name and address of the registered agent, and the name and address of all owners or officers. After the form has been completed and submitted, a filing fee must be paid in order for the trade name to be officially registered.
