Assumed Business Name (Doing Business As)
A DBA (Doing Business As) is a business name that is different from your personal name.
Two DBA's cannot have the same or similar name in the same county, to avoid confusion.
Limited partnerships, limited liability companies (LLC) and corporations must be filed with the State of Michigan, and not with the County Clerk's Office.
There are guidelines when it comes to choosing an Assumed Business Name. Please review" Choosing a Business Name", provided by the State of Michigan.
