    Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n

    Kansas<\/span> does not offer <\/span>DBA<\/span> (<\/span>Doing Business As<\/span>) registration for <\/span>trade names<\/span> or fictitious names. You can conduct business under another name without registering with the state or county. However, there are other ways to register alternative <\/span>business names<\/span> such as creating a <\/span>business entity<\/span> or changing the name of a <\/span>business entity<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
