What if I plan to do business in multiple counties?
If you are a non-corporate business, then you need to file an assumed name certificate with each county in which you plan to conduct business. If you are a corporation, you need to file your assumed name certificate(s) in the county in which the corporations registered office is located. If the registered office is different from your principle office, then you need to file the assumed name certificate(s) in both counties.
