Move your LLC to Texas. Plan for continuity.
A qualifying conversion can move your existing entity to Texas. We review eligibility and help you understand the documents and updates your business needs.
- Same entity, new state. A qualifying conversion can preserve the existing legal entity.
- Review your ongoing obligations. Taxes and reports in your former state depend on continuing activity and required closing filings.
- Plan for ownership continuity. Review ownership approvals, contracts, and banking requirements before the move.
Preparation times are estimates after we receive complete information and payment. State review and approval take additional time and are not guaranteed.
A legal residency change for your business.
A statutory conversion may continue an existing entity as a Texas entity. It requires eligibility, approvals, and the appropriate documents in both jurisdictions.
The Texas filing includes a Certificate of Conversion and a Certificate of Formation with conversion provisions. The origin-state documents and timing must also be coordinated.
Remaining activities can create tax or registration duties in other states. EIN, contracts, licensing, and banking continuity require an individual review.
Domestication makes sense when…
You've moved your home & team to Texas
Moving operations to Texas may change your filing needs. Confirm any remaining obligations in your previous state.
You want to cut multi-state tax exposure
Review where you continue to do business and which tax accounts, reports, and registrations remain necessary.
You're not raising on Delaware terms
Check your governing documents and investor agreements before changing the entity’s jurisdiction.
You want to preserve your business history
A qualifying conversion may preserve entity continuity. Confirm the implications for your EIN, accounts, and agreements.

No payment now. Review the complete scope and itemized fees first.
Two paths. Review your circumstances.
Your entity, investors, and ongoing activities determine which path is appropriate.
Texas Domestication
Move the entity to Texas. Texas becomes your home state.
- Best when you've fully relocated
- Texas becomes your formation state
- Review any remaining home-state tax and filing duties
- EIN and account continuity depend on the filing path
- Review member or shareholder approvals
- Basic services from $199; timing and scope confirmed in your quote
Foreign Qualification
Keep your home state. Register Texas as a second jurisdiction.
- Best when investors require Delaware
- Best when home-state ties matter (licensing, contracts)
- Two annual reports, two states' fees
- Same EIN, contracts, and bank
- Future changes may require additional filings
- From $219 plus state fees; timing varies
Four steps. A clear filing plan.
Intake & eligibility check
Confirm home-state eligibility, gather your existing entity documents.
Plan of Conversion
Confirm the plan, required approvals, and documents for each state. Legal or tax advice, if needed, requires an appropriate professional.
Texas & home-state filings
Submit the approved documents in the required sequence and track each filing separately. Government acceptance is not guaranteed.
IRS & bank update
Deliver filed documents and identify remaining IRS, bank, governance, and compliance updates. Only services listed in your accepted quote are included.
From which states can you domesticate?
Eligibility depends on your entity type and the current laws in both states. Tell us your origin state so we can review the available filing paths.
If direct conversion is unavailable, another route such as foreign qualification or a merger may be appropriate. We confirm the scope and fees after reviewing your circumstances.
Your quote defines the deliverables.
- Entity and origin-state eligibility review
- Specific Texas and origin-state documents
- Required owner approvals and signatures
- Government fees separated from service fees
- Responsibility for taxes and remaining reports
- Optional registered agent services and renewals
- Estimated preparation and state review times
- Cancellation terms and document delivery
A package preference is not authorization to file. We confirm the scope in writing before you pay. Legal advice, tax returns, banking changes, and permits are not automatically included.
The fees depend on the actual filings.
Example: Delaware LLC → Texas LLC
- Texas conversion
- $300
- Texas formation
- $300
- Delaware conversion
- $220
- Government filing fees
- $820
Payment processing is quoted separately before payment.
Filing fees exclude agency payment fees, Delaware LLC tax ($400/year), and optional services. Final costs require review.
Government fees go only toward your filings, at cost. We refund 100% of any unused amount. Extra costs need your approval.
New Texas LLC formation and conversion are different services. The $300 fee advertised for a new Texas LLC is not the total cost to convert an existing business.
Request an itemized quoteA qualifying conversion may allow the same entity to keep its EIN. Changes to entity type, ownership, or tax treatment can affect IRS requirements. Confirm your circumstances before filing.
A qualifying conversion can continue the existing entity instead of dissolving and starting again. The required documents and closing steps depend on the laws in both states.
Entity continuity may preserve existing relationships, but banks, lenders, licensing agencies, and contracts can require notices or approvals. Review those requirements before filing.
Moving your formation state does not automatically end tax or reporting duties elsewhere. Continuing operations, registrations, and final returns can create obligations. Review your exit with a qualified tax adviser.
We review other available paths, including foreign qualification or a merger where appropriate. The documents, fees, and legal consequences vary; confirm the approach before ordering.
A conversion plan should address ownership continuity and required approvals. Governing documents may need updates for Texas law. Review changes with your legal adviser.
If your term sheet requires Delaware governance, foreign-qualify into Texas instead. Most term sheets are flexible; some aren't. We recommend reviewing your investor docs with your attorney. Our intake process helps identify which filing path may work best.
You can prepare and submit the required documents yourself. A conversion involves requirements in both states, so review the applicable instructions and consider professional advice for complex ownership or tax issues.
