Question:\u00a0 How do I change the name of an Arizona limited liability company?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Answer<\/strong>:\u00a0 The company must file Articles of Amendment to the Articles of Organization in which it notifies the Arizona Corporation Commission of the name change. Within sixty days after the ACC approves the amendment changing the name, a copy of the articles of amendment or restated articles of organization shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the county of the known place of business for three consecutive publications unless the company’s statutory agent’s address is in Maricopa or Pima county.<\/p>\n

If publication is required an affidavit evidencing publication may be filed with the ACC.\u00a0 I recommend that the company always file an Affidavit of Publication with the ACC so it can prove years later that it satisfied the publication requirement.<\/p>\n
