The state of Wyoming refers to a DBA as a \u201ctrade name,\u201d though you may also see the terms \u201cassumed name\u201d or \u201cfictitious business name.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Under <a href=\"https:\/\/codes.findlaw.com\/wy\/title-40-trade-and-commerce\/wy-st-sect-40-2-103\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wyo. Stat. \u00a740-2-103<\/a>, all Wyoming businesses, including sole proprietorships, limited liability companies, limited liability partnerships, general partnerships, and corporations, can register a DBA for the name they are doing business under. A DBA is the name presented to the public, and it doesn\u2019t change the legal business name.<\/p>\n<p>A trade name is especially useful when the type of business would not be clear by simply using your legal name as the company name. For instance, Claudia\u2019s Cupcakes as a DBA would make clear what Claudia Perez is selling.<\/p>\n<p>You can learn more about getting a Wyoming DBA and get answers to frequently asked questions here.<\/p>\n<h2><b><a id=\"Do\"><\/a>Do You Need a DBA in Wyoming?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Wyoming does not require a business to register a DBA to operate under a trade name within the state. Still, a DBA could be beneficial for entrepreneurs and startups for several reasons, including allowing you to open a bank account and enter contracts under your business name.<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/legalzoomcominc.pxf.io\/c\/4851649\/2115292\/26746?subId1=how-to-get-a-dba-in-wyoming-in-3-steps&amp;auto-aff-dba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DBA registration<\/a> can also help you build your brand and eliminate confusion between your business and others.

For instance, you cannot use words that suggest your enterprise is a finance- or education-related business without approval or identifiers such as LLC or Corp., unless they accurately reflect your business structure. To ensure a unique name, your first step in registering your DBA is making sure no one else is using it.<\/p>\n<p>Here are three ways you can make sure the DBA name you want is available:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Wyoming Business Center Filing Search. <\/b>The Wyoming Secretary of State website maintains a <a href=\"https:\/\/wyobiz.wyo.gov\/Business\/FilingSearch.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">searchable database of registered Wyoming trade names<\/a>, fictitious names, and assumed business names, which you can search to see if anyone else has registered your DBA name.<\/li>\n<li><b>Online Search.<\/b> A general online search with your favorite search engine will tell you if your name is already being used by someone else outside of Wyoming. For domain registrations, search the <a href=\"https:\/\/lookup.icann.org\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ICANN database<\/a>. If your name is available, you can register it to prevent anyone else from using that URL. Another business using your name doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t use it, but you still may decide to keep looking to avoid any potential brand confusion or claims of infringement.<\/li>\n<li><b>Federal Trademark Database Search. <\/b>All registered trademarks in the United States are found in the searchable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uspto.gov\/trademarks\/search\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USPTO trademark database<\/a>. You may also choose to protect your DBA name by registering it with the USPTO.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Note that Wyoming requires that you use the name you want to register before you can file a DBA. If you aren\u2019t ready to file a DBA, you can file an <a href=\"https:\/\/sos.wyo.gov\/Forms\/Business\/TN\/TN-NameReservation.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Application for Reservation of Trade Name<\/a> along with a $30 fee to reserve the trade name for 120 days.<\/p>\n\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"steps-container-item\">\n                <div class=\"category-overview category-overview-item-steps\">\n                    <div class=\"category-overview-heading category-overview-heading-steps\">\n                        <div class=\"category-overview-steps\">\n                            2\n                        <\/div>\n                        <h2 class=\"category-overview-steps-title\" id=\"\">Complete the Application for Registration of Trade Name<\/h2>\n                    <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"category-overview-content-steps\">\n                        <p>To register a Wyoming DBA name, you must complete an <a href=\"https:\/\/sos.wyo.gov\/Forms\/Business\/TN\/TN-RegistrationApplication.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Application for Registration of Trade Name<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>You will need the following information:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Trade name<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Applicant name, denoting if applicant is an individual or a separate business entity<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Business address<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>State where business was formed (except if sole proprietor or general partnership)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Names and addresses of all partners or trustees (if applying as partnership or trust)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Description of type of business<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Date you first used the trade name<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Signature and contact information of someone authorized to act on behalf of your business (may be a registered agent)&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Note that the Wyoming Secretary of State scans this application and makes it available on its website, so all information will be public.<\/p>\n\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"steps-container-item\">\n                <div class=\"category-overview category-overview-item-steps\">\n                    <div class=\"category-overview-heading category-overview-heading-steps\">\n                        <div class=\"category-overview-steps\">\n                            3\n                        <\/div>\n                        <h2 class=\"category-overview-steps-title\" id=\"\">File the Application for Registration of Trade Name<\/h2>\n                    <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"category-overview-content-steps\">\n                        <p>Before filing the form, you must have it notarized.<\/p>\n<p>Wyoming does not allow online filing, so you will need to mail the completed, notarized form along with the $100 filing fee to:<\/p>\n<p>Wyoming Secretary of State<\/p>\n<p>Herschler Building East, Suite 101<\/p>\n<p>122 W 25th Street<\/p>\n<p>Cheyenne, WY 82002-0020<\/p>\n<p>Processing time for Wyoming DBAs is up to 15 business days, and there is no option to expedite the process.<\/p>\n\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2><b><a id=\"After\"><\/a>After Obtaining Your DBA Registration<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Wyoming does not require businesses to publish announcements of new DBA registrations publicly in newspapers or otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Wyoming DBAs must be renewed every 10 years, though you cannot renew until six months before expiration.

The business must first use the name in commerce. The process to register the trade name involves performing a name availability search via the Secretary of State database, completing a notarized Application for Registration of Trade Name, and submitting a $100 filing fee by mail. Registrations are valid for 10 years and require renewal six months before expiration.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><a id=\"Help\"><\/a>Need Help Filing Your DBA?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>If you would like assistance on deciding whether a DBA is right for you or with filing one, a <a href=\"https:\/\/lawyers.findlaw.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">local business attorney<\/a> can help.<\/p>\n<p>Or you can let our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/legalzoomcominc.pxf.io\/c\/4851649\/2115292\/26746?subId1=how-to-file-a-dba-in-wyoming-custom-content\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trusted partner LegalZoom<\/a> handle your name search and DBA application filing for $99 plus filing fees.<\/p>\n<p><i><b>Disclaimer:\u00a0<\/b>The information presented here does not constitute legal advice or representation.
