The Iowa Resolution to Adopt Fictitious Name [490.401] is a document that allows a business to operate under a different or assumed name in the state of Iowa. The resolution must be filed with the Iowa Secretary of State and must include the type of business, the assumed name, the county in which the business is located, the beginning and ending date of the assumed name, and the name and address of each individual or corporation that has an ownership interest in the business. There are two different types of resolutions; a General Resolution and a Statement of Authority. The General Resolution must be adopted by the directors or members of the business and the Statement of Authority must be adopted by the officers of the business. Once the resolution is filed with the Iowa Secretary of State, the assumed name can be used in any and all business activities.
