Updated November 17, 2020: Business owners add a DBA to an LLC when they need to conduct business using a different name than their company's legal name. This could be necessary if your business expands to a new state where your original LLC name is already taken.
The DBA has to be filled out and notarized with no errors due to the fact that it is recorded with the County. Filing for a DBA allows you to do business under a different name.The name of your business is up to you, but it needs to be properly registered with the state of California.
Lack of tax benefits: A DBA is not a corporation, so merely filing a DBA that is not part of a corporate umbrella like an LLC will not give you any special tax benefits. If you are only doing business as a DBA, any money your business makes passes through to your individual tax return and is taxed accordingly.
