Most states require an LLC designation be included in the name of a company that's registered as an LLC. The designations vary from state to state, but generally include phrases or abbreviations such as "Limited Liability Company", "Limited Liability Co.", "LLC" and "Limited".
Should you put LLC at the end of my business name?
You should always include “LLC” on all invoices, contracts, leases, legal records, tax returns, letterheads and other purposes. In most states, it is required to add "LLC" to your business name when forming your business, filing for an EIN or paying taxes.
Do I need to include LLC in my domain name?
No, you are not legally required to put “LLC” in the domain name for your business. In fact, if you look at most websites on the internet, the vast majority do not include a corporate designator (“ending”) in their domain name. Many consider it a little “noisy”. Meaning, it's just extra, unnecessary characters.Nov 3, 2021
Can I use a different name than my LLC name?
If a business owner wants to operate under a different name other than the company's legal name, they can use a trade name instead. A trade name does not need to include additional words or legal phrases (e.g., Corp, LLC, etc.). A trade name may also be called a doing business as (DBA) name.Aug 6, 2020
