My game is close to being finished and I intend to submit it to some print and play web site. What I am not sure yet is if it is a good idea to register a company name and publish my work under this company name rather than publishing it under my name.
I live in Canada, and rules/laws might be different than in the united states. A long time ago, people talked about "doing business as" name registration, which could be good, but I don't know if this kind of practice exist in Canada. If I create a real company, I would have to make financial and tax reports every year and that is something that I might not want to do.
So I was really wondering if it really worth it to register a name for PnP publishing since I am never going to publish physically a game. If my game get's popular and get published for real, another company will do it.
I made a small search on the internet and I did not find much. A web site said that in canada, a "doing business as" is called "operating as". But I have not found actually any place where to register it. Also, I am not sure if it's Federal or Provincial responsibility.
