Database Content
The Fictitious Business Name database is not an official record for legal purposes. It is a summary of some of the information contained on the Fictitious Business Name statements filed in our office. If an official, certified record or written record search is needed, please contact us for more information.
The Fictitious Business Name database only contains records filed in Sacramento County. Fictitious Business Names are filed at the county level, so businesses in Placer County, for example, will not appear in our database. If you are interested in a business based in another county, please contact that county.

Businesses conducting business in California with no physical location in the State are required to file in Sacramento County.
Note: If you are planning to file a Fictitious Business Name, it is your responsibility to check sources other than the Sacramento County Fictitious Business Name database to ensure that you are not infringing on trademarks or common law rights. Please see the Frequently Asked Questions for more information.
