How To Secure A DBA In New York?


There are two different  ways to secure doing business as in the state of New York.

  1. A sole proprietorship is registered with the county and in most counties the application is notarized by a business owner. A word company, group, or plural prevents to file a sole proprietorship in New York. A copy of the driver's license is sent along with the dba application to the address verification. The birth name is not allowed to register as a DBA. A Non US resident without a physical presence cannot register a dba in New York.
  2. DBA for an entity in New York  such as a corporation or a limited liability company is filed by the division of corporation.

A DBA in New York does not renew and files the same day by the county and the state.
