DBAs for Sole Proprietorships and General Partnerships

Businesses that operate as sole proprietorships or general partnerships should file an Assumed Name Certificate or d.b.a. (doing business as) for each name (or deviation of that name) the business uses.  It is filed with the county clerk in each county where a business premise will be maintained or, if no business premise will be maintained, it should be filed in each county where business will be conducted.  DBAs for these type businesses are filed at the county level only - there is no state filing available.
