New Delaware Assumed Name Registration Requirement Effective on June 2
On June 2, 2025, Delaware’s new assumed name/DBA registration requirement will go into effect, which requires companies to register assumed names with the Delaware Division of Revenue rather than the prothonotary of each county in which business is transacted. These changes make Delaware trade name registrations a state filing rather than a county-by-county filing. Any companies with trade names previously registered with a Delaware county must re-register their trade names with the state Division of Revenue. The re-registration window will remain open through August 1, 2025. According to the Division of Revenue, failure to re-register by the deadline will result in the trade name becoming available for another entity to claim.
Please reach out to Katie Feary-Gardner or JD Robinson with any questions.
