FAQ
Texas Franchise Tax Report Questions
Everything you need to know about franchise tax report filing in Texas
Texas does not require a traditional annual report. Instead, Texas LLCs must file a franchise tax report by May 15th each year. This includes a Public Information Report with your business details.
Texas franchise tax is based on your LLC's margin (revenue minus certain deductions). Small businesses under the no-tax-due threshold (currently $2.47 million in total revenue) still need to file but won't owe tax. Most small LLCs qualify for the no-tax-due status.
Texas franchise tax reports are due May 15th each year. Extensions are available but must be requested before the deadline. We track your deadline and ensure timely filing.
Missing your annual report deadline can have serious consequences. Most states charge late fees and penalties that accumulate over time. Continued non-compliance can cause your LLC to lose its 'good standing' status, preventing you from opening bank accounts, signing contracts, or conducting certain business activities. In severe cases, your LLC can be administratively dissolved by the state.
A Certificate of Good Standing (also called Certificate of Existence or Certificate of Status) is an official state document confirming your LLC is properly registered and compliant with all state requirements. Banks, investors, and business partners often request this document. We can obtain certificates on your behalf whenever you need them.
Our service fee covers the preparation and filing of your annual report. State filing fees (which vary by state) are separate and billed at cost with no markup. We clearly communicate all fees before filing so there are no surprises.
When you sign up, we analyze your LLC's formation date and state requirements to determine your specific deadline. You'll see upcoming deadlines in your dashboard, and we send proactive email reminders 30 days before each due date. We handle the tracking so you can focus on your business.
Yes, we can help reinstate an LLC that has been administratively dissolved due to missed filings. The process typically involves filing all overdue reports, paying back penalties and fees, and submitting a reinstatement application. Requirements and costs vary by state. Contact us for a reinstatement assessment.
