A DBA (Doing Business As) lets you operate under a business name different from your legal name. In Massachusetts, DBA filings are handled at the state level.
Our fee covers preparation and filing of your DBA paperwork with the appropriate state office. County government filing fees are paid separately and vary by location.
Most Massachusetts DBA filings are processed within a few business days after submission to the state office.
If you're a sole proprietor operating under your own legal name, a DBA is typically not required. However, if you use any other name for your business, you'll need to register it.
