Business Formation Houston TX — LLC, Corp, DBA, EIN

Why Form an LLC?

Protect Yourself.
Build Something Real.

Operating without an LLC?

You're personally liable for everything that goes wrong.

Personal Asset Protection

An LLC separates your personal finances from your business. If something goes wrong, your personal assets are protected.

Professional Credibility

Clients, banks, and partners take you more seriously as an LLC. Opens doors to business credit, contracts, and more.

Tax Advantages

LLCs offer flexible tax treatment — pass-through taxation means you may pay less than a corporation or sole proprietor.

What You Get

Everything Included
No Hidden Fees.

Our $775 LLC package includes everything you need to start your business properly. No surprise fees, no "pay extra for the EIN" — it's all in the price.

BOI Report — Required by Law

Most LLCs and Corporations formed in the US must file a Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) report with FinCEN. New businesses must file within 90 days of formation. Penalties for non-filing can be significant. We include BOI filing in our packages and also offer it as a standalone service for $50.

Texas SOS Filing

We prepare and file your Certificate of Formation with the Texas Secretary of State. State fees included.

EIN from IRS

Your Federal Employer Identification Number — needed for bank accounts, hiring, taxes, and FMCSA filings.

Operating Agreement

A basic Texas LLC operating agreement documenting member roles, ownership percentages, and operating rules.

1 Year Registered Agent FREE

Included free for the first year with any LLC package. If added as a standalone add-on, the $125/year fee applies from day one. Either way, it auto-renews at $125/year after the first year — we'll notify you before it renews.

BOI Report (FinCEN)

Federally required for most LLCs. We file it for you so you don't have to worry about the deadline.

Texas Business Formation Facts

What You Need to Know Before
Starting a Business in Texas.

🏢 Texas LLC Formation Starts with the Secretary of State

To form a Texas LLC, you must file a Certificate of Formation with the Texas Secretary of State. The state filing fee is $300. We handle the entire process — name search, filing, and confirmation — so your Texas LLC is done right the first time.

📋 Every Texas Business Needs an EIN from the IRS

An Employer Identification Number (EIN) is required to open a business bank account, hire employees, and file business taxes. It's issued by the IRS and is free to obtain — but the process can be confusing. We file it for you as part of your formation package.

⚠️ Texas Requires an Annual Franchise Tax Report

All Texas LLCs and corporations must file an annual Franchise Tax Report with the Texas Comptroller — even if your business made no revenue. Failure to file can result in penalties and your business losing its good standing. Due date is May 15 each year.

🛡️ An LLC Protects Your Personal Assets in Texas

A Texas LLC (Limited Liability Company) separates your personal finances from your business. This means if your business is sued or owes debt, your personal bank accounts, home, and vehicle are generally protected. This is especially important for trucking companies and contractors operating in Harris County.

📝 DBA (Assumed Name) Lets You Do Business Under a Different Name

If you want to operate your Texas business under a name different from your legal name or LLC name, you need to file a DBA (Doing Business As) — also called an Assumed Name Certificate — with the county clerk in Harris County. We handle DBA filings for Houston-area businesses same week.

🔄 Closed or Inactive LLC? You Can Reinstate It in Texas

If your Texas LLC was forfeited or administratively dissolved due to missed filings, you can reinstate it through the Texas Secretary of State without starting over. We handle LLC reinstatements for businesses across Houston and Harris County — often same week.
