Context

You may need to update your business name on your Meow account due to a legal name change, adding a DBA (Doing Business As), correcting a spelling error, or other business structure changes. This process requires providing official documentation to verify the name change.

Answer

To change your business name on your Meow account, follow these steps:

1. Gather the required documentation - You'll need official documents that confirm the name change, such as:

   • Certificate of Amendment or Articles of Amendment

   • Name Change Certificate

   • Updated Articles of Incorporation

   • DBA Certificate (for adding a "Doing Business As" name)

   • EIN letter from the IRS showing the new name

2. Submit your documentation - You can provide the documents in one of these ways:

   • Upload directly at https://app.meow.com/upload-documents

   • Email the documents to support@meow.com

   • Attach them to a support chat conversation

3. Wait for processing - Once you submit the documentation, the Meow team will review and update your account name. This typically takes 1-2 business days.

4. Confirmation - You'll receive confirmation when the name change is complete, and the updated name should appear in your dashboard shortly after.

Important notes:

• If your EIN (tax ID number) has changed, you'll need to open a new account rather than updating the existing one

• Simple spelling corrections can often be handled quickly by the support team

• For DBA names, you can only add one DBA per account

• The account must remain under the legal entity name that was originally used to open it, unless there's been an official legal name change
