The SBA Franchise Directory is Back — With Less Paperwork

Good news for lenders and borrowers: the Small Business Administration (SBA) has reinstated its Franchise Directory, and the process is now simpler than ever. The SBA has adopted a one-time Franchisor Certification model, which means if a franchise brand is listed in the directory, the Franchise Addendum is no longer required.

Franchisors have until December 31, 2025, to complete this one-time certification. Until then, any franchise that hasn’t submitted the certification must still follow the previous process. That includes executing the Franchise Addendum and meeting any notes or conditions listed in the directory prior to closing the loan.

What This Means for You and Your Borrowers:

Faster underwriting and approval timelines
Fewer documents to collect and review
Instant verification of SBA franchise eligibility

The Franchise Directory is updated periodically as new brands are added and certifications are submitted. You can view the most recent version here: SBA Franchise Directory
