Smarter Texas Tax Planning

Texas has no personal income tax, so planning focuses on the franchise (margin) tax, federal tax, entity structure and sales tax compliance. We help owners choose the right margin calculation and plan distributions.

Franchise (Margin) Tax

Texas LLCs file a franchise tax report each year. Businesses under the no-tax-due threshold owe nothing but must still file. We prepare the report and Public Information Report.

Sales Tax up to 8.25%

Texas adds up to 2% local sales tax to the 6.25% state rate. We source sales correctly and file on schedule.

Federal-First Owner Planning

With no state income tax, federal strategy drives savings. We review entity choice and owner pay each year.
