D-U-N-S number and DBA
I have a friend I am working
with developing some iOS apps. I have a
company name I use a DBA (doing business as). My company name is also a registered Trade Name in Colorado.
When I looked at the iOS
developer program they have an individual or a Company version (for the same
price)
When I went to set up a business
developer iOS account I saw this screen.
OK so I need a D-U-N-S number?
So I went to http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform
and went through the process of obtaining a D-U-N-S number, I gave it a week or
so to get fully completed.
and log back into the system (I was given a user ID and password when I
initially started the D-U-N-S process)
And if I view my Company Report
I can see that I am registered
with them as a DBA (which is correct).
Well even though I have a
D-U-N-S number, a DBA, an EIN, registered .com site, and a Registered Trade
name in my state. I can't get a company
iOS developer account.
That is a little frustrating to
say the least.
It will work if I form an LLC,
but at this point I don't want to go through the expense and time to form an
LLC.
For the time being I think I
will register as an individual and later, once I form an LLC, convert it to a
company developer account.
The idea of reigstering as an individual, then later converting it to a business account was suggested on a forum post I read on the subject
at http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/115154-iOS-Developer-Program-individual-or-company
