Can I change my company's name?
Yes, you can change your company’s name after it’s been formed!
Here’s how:
-
File an Amendment with the State
You’ll need to file a name change (Articles of Amendment) with the state where your business is registered (timeline and fees vary by state). -
Update the IRS
Notify the IRS of your new business name. In most cases, this doesn’t require a new EIN. -
Update Other Accounts
If applicable, you’ll also need to update your business name with:-
State tax and labor departments
-
Business licenses or permits
-
Bank accounts
-
Insurance providers
-
Any industry-specific agencies
-
