The Iowa Application for Registration of Name [490.403] is an official form used by Iowa businesses to register their names with the Iowa Secretary of State. This application must be completed and submitted to the Office of the Iowa Secretary of State with the necessary supporting documents and filing fee. There are two types of Iowa Application for Registration of Name [490.403]: (1) the Standard Application, which is used to register a new or assumed business name, and (2) the Assumed Name Amendment, which is used to make changes to an existing business name. The forms require the name of the business, its address, a description of the business activities, the name of the business’s registered agent, and the name of the person filing the application. The application must be signed by the applicant, and a filing fee must be paid. Once the filing is complete, the business will be officially registered with the State of Iowa.
