What a startup owes Texas every year

If you are incorporated as a corporation

A Texas corporation files a Public Information Report with no filing fee and owes no franchise tax (no tax due below the revenue threshold, currently $2.47M). Due: May 15.

If you are formed as an LLC

A Texas LLC files a Public Information Report with no filing fee and owes no franchise tax (no tax due below the revenue threshold, currently $2.47M). Due: May 15.

Does the entity type change the bill?

In Texas, no. A corporation and an LLC both come to $0 a year in state filing costs, so choose the entity on tax treatment and how you intend to raise, not on this line.

Worth knowing about Texas

  • A report is still required even when no tax is due.

Texas has no annual franchise tax, so the report fee is the whole state-level obligation. Income and gross receipts taxes are assessed separately. Figures are estimates for planning. Texas's own filing system determines the final balance.
