Certain states require franchisors to register their franchise opportunity and file their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) with state examiners prior to offering franchises to people living in that state. These registration states have examiners review a franchise company's FDD to ensure it complies state regulatory requirements. In addition to registration states, additional states have enacted supplemental franchise or business opportunity laws that mandate franchisors to provide their franchise within the state. In almost all instances the filing is a notice within the state. Unlike franchise registration states, the franchise filing states do not review the FDD.
