What are the steps required for Texas LLC formation?

Forming a Texas LLC involves several steps. Firstly, you need to file a certificate of formation. This can be done online through the Secretary of State's online portal, SOSDirect, or via mail. The certificate should include the name of the LLC, the registered agent's name and address, the legal structure of the LLC (member-managed or manager-managed), the effective date of the certificate, and the governing person's name and address. The filing fee is $300 and the processing time for the certificate of formation is typically 3-5 business days. Expedited processing is available for an additional fee. There are no restrictions on who can form or own a business entity in Texas, provided they are legally able to enter into a contract. There are also no age requirements for business owners, officers, or directors
