QUESTION

Doing Business As Name Registration for Nonprofit

Asked on Oct 28th, 2016 on Corporate Law - New York
More details to this question:
A nonprofit organization is currently registered to solicit for donations in many states and is looking to solicit in every state. The organization is incorporated in the state of new York but is located in Tennessee. If the organization is soliciting under a different name, where do we need to register the new name. NY and TN or every state? Can we even register a trade name without having a business license in a state? Also, if the organization adds applies for more business licenses do we need to register the DBA in those states too?

You would need to contact a lawyer in each state.  In NY, you need to register the new name.
