Texas has no personal income tax on wages, so most owners file only a federal income tax return. Business-level taxes can still apply, so your books still need to be accurate.
Texas's statewide base sales tax rate is 6.25%. Local taxes are often added on top, so the rate you charge depends on where your sales happen. We track sales tax collected separately from revenue so filing is simple.
Texas has no personal income tax, but most LLCs and corporations must file an annual franchise tax report.
Most Texas business filings go to the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. We keep your books organized so these returns are a simple handoff to you or your CPA.
