Definition: Florida's law governing registration of a business name used instead of the person's legal name, subject to statutory exemptions.
Example
A business reviews whether its proposed trade name must be registered with the Division of Corporations.
Keep the distinction clear
Fictitious-name registration does not itself create a corporation, grant exclusive ownership of a name, or authorize real estate brokerage. DBPR brokerage-name requirements are separate.
