What documents are required to be submitted when changing a business name?

When changing a business name in Montana, certain documents must be submitted. First, a completed "Applicant's Consent to Use of Business Name" form is required. This form acknowledges that the applicant agrees to the change and will comply with legal requirements. Additionally, a "Notice of Intent to Transact Business Under Assumed Business Name" form must be completed, providing the old and new business names along with other relevant information. A copy of the applicant's current registration certificate is also necessary. Furthermore, an updated application, including the new business name, must be submitted in accordance with the specific business type (e.g., corporation, limited liability company). Additionally, applicable fees should be included. Failure to submit any of these required documents may result in delays or rejection of the business name change request.
