Operate Name Notice For Free

A trade name is the name your business is commonly known as or the name you use when advertising or doing business. A trade name is also called a DBA (doing business as) name. A good example of this is Walmart. Walmart's legal business name is Wal-Mart Inc.

To file a fictitious name registration: The name you register must be advertised at least once in a newspaper that is located within the county where your principal place of business is located (Chapter 50, Florida Statutes). However, proof of advertisement is not required.

(In North America, the common designation for doing business as is ?DBA? or ?d/b/a.? In other countries, ?trading as? is more common, with ?t/a? the abbreviation.)

DBA stands for ?doing business as?. A DBA name is also referred to as a ?trade name?, ?assumed name?, or ?fictitious business name?. The purpose of registering a DBA name is to notify the public that a particular person or business entity is conducting business under a name other than its legal name.

A DBA, or ?doing business as?, comes into play if, for example, your LLC's legal name is ?The John Doe LLC? but you want customers to know you as ?Superlative Salon? or, well, anything besides ?The John Doe LLC?.

A database administrator, or DBA, is responsible for maintaining, securing, and operating databases and also ensures that data is correctly stored and retrieved. In addition, DBAs often work with developers to design and implement new features and troubleshoot any issues.

Within 30 days after filing a fictitious business name statement, the registrant must publish the statement in a local newspaper of general circulation near the principal place of business. The notice must appear once a week for four successive weeks.
