In advertising, the funeral establishment's name must be exact as shown on which records?

• A. The Public Health Department's records
• B. The Board's (Bureau's) records
• C. The County Recorder's records
• D. The Secretary of State's records

Answer: (B)

Advertising must match the exact operating name shown on the funeral establishment’s license. The licensing board’s records are the authoritative source for the licensed name, so using that precise name helps ensure clear accountability and prevents misleading the public about who is legally authorized to provide services. Other records, like Public Health permits, County Recorder DBA filings, or Secretary of State corporate names, may show different information, but they do not define the licensed operating name that must appear in advertising.
