How do I register as sole proprietorship or general partnership?
A. If the business name is your name, registration is advisable but not required. If the business name is not your name, registration is required. To register a sole proprietorship or general partnership under a trade name or a name including “and Company” or “& Co.”, contact the County Clerk in the county or counties where business will be conducted: NJ County Clerks: http://www.state.nj.us/lps/elections/clerks.
