× The Franchise Registration States are states that, in addition to the Federal Franchise Laws, have issued supplemental franchise laws and require franchisors to register their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) with a local state regulator before offering or selling a franchise within the state.
Federal Franchise Registration Requirements The federal Franchise Rule does not require that a franchisor register or file its FDD with any specific federal agency, including the FTC.
Franchise registration states include California, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, and North Dakota. Franchise filing states include Connecticut, Florida, Kentucky, South Carolina, and South Dakota.
Ing to the FTC, franchisors have an obligation to provide the franchisee with the FDD at least 14 days before it needs to be signed or before any initial money is exchanged. The franchisee has a right to a copy of the FDD after the franchisor has received the application and agreed to consider it.
Yes. A franchisor that offers a franchise in California is required to file an application for registration or exemption notice. The franchise application must be filed in ance with the California Guidelines for Franchise Registration.
Franchises and Business Opportunities A franchise is one type of business opportunity. In Wisconsin, all three elements - a marketing plan, a trademark association, and a franchise fee - must be present if the business opportunity is to be classified as a franchise.
Massachusetts is classified as a non-registration state because there is no state franchise registration, business opportunity exemption registration, or other franchise disclosures required by the state.
