Of course, After you’ve filed and officially formed a legal entity, you may have
other permits, filings, or business licenses you’re required to obtain from your
state, county, and/or town government. A good way to make sure that you’re in compliance
with all of these permit requirements is to sign up for our

Business Name—State
For some entity types, registration is only necessary with the Secretary of State’s

put their business names on file with the County Clerk’s Office:
Business Name—State and County
There is one entity type in Texas that is required to file at both the state and
the county level, and that is a Fictitious Name for an incorporated
entity. This is a type of DBA, and two different registrations are required.
