(A) A licensee may not conduct business under a name other than that specified in the license. A license issued under this chapter is not assignable. A licensee may not conduct business under any fictitious or assumed name without prior written authorization from the department. The department may not authorize the use of a name that is so similar to that of a public office or agency or to that of another licensee that the public may be confused or misled by its use. A licensee may not conduct business under more than one name unless it has obtained a separate license for each name. (B) A licensee may change its licensed name at any time by notifying the department and paying a fee for each change of name. The department by regulation shall set the fee for each name change in an amount not to exceed fifty dollars. A licensee may change its name on renewal of the license without the payment of the name change fee. (C) A licensee must notify the department in writing of: (1) a change in the location of its primary business office; (2) the addition of more business offices; or (3) a change in the location of business records maintained by the licensee.
