When may I operate under my DBA name?
You need to file your DBA before you can start a business or open a bank account. As soon as it is placed on record and certified by the County or State you may proceed with operations. Publication is statutory requirement in several states but that does delay the use of the active name in any of them. RushFiling offers expedited DBA filings in all applicable states.
