Utah allows you to form a sole proprietorship under your name or a trade name. First off, if under another name other than your legal name visit the Utah Division of Corporations & Commercial Code as well as the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office to ensure it isn’t already taken or too similar to another.
Then get a copy of the DBA Application form through the Division of Corporations or you can file online and register through the Utah One Stop service.
As soon as you have access to the form, remember all entries should be typewritten or computer generated as it’s clearly stated. Answering the entries manually isn’t allowed and all the instructions you need to be aware of can be found HERE.
The following information is necessary:
As soon as the assumed name form is completed, make sure that all entries are correct. You can then have the form notarized if required. From there, you can send it via postal mail, fax, or submit it personally. Be sure to keep an official copy for your records as well.
