Please click on the link above to apply.  All person(s) who are owning, conducting or transacting the business will need to sign the Certificate of Intention in front of a notary.  Upon receipt of the executed Certificate of Intention, we will verify your business name is not already being used in Ford County, IL.

There is a fee of $27.00 owed to the Ford County Clerk & Recorder’s Office at the time of applying.  We will then prepare the Assumed Name Publication Notice. This Publication Notice will be sent to you with instructions.
