File an Amendment With the State

To officially change your company’s name, you must file an Articles of Amendment (sometimes called a Certificate of Amendment) with the state where your business is registered. Processing times and filing fees vary depending on the state.

Notify the IRS

Once your new name is legally approved, you need to notify the IRS. In most cases, this does not require applying for a new EIN, unless the structure of your business has also changed.

Update Other Accounts and Registrations

After completing the state filing, update your company name everywhere it is legally or financially recognized. This may include:

•State tax and labor departments

•Business licenses and permits

•Bank accounts and credit lines

•Insurance providers

•Contracts and vendor accounts

•Any relevant industry-specific agencies
