Proprietor Registration Documents

In order to do business in the State of Texas, you will need to acquire a Texas Proprietor Registration and be registered to do business within the State. The documents required for this are also listed below.

The first document is an Application to the Secretary of State's Agent for Service of Process. The Application to the Secretary of State's Agent for Service of Process is accepted by the Texas Secretary of State and an official copy is filed with the county clerk of the county where the proprietor resides. This certificate contains information about the proprietor, including his address, name, and office address.

The second document is a Notice of Intent to Invest. This Notice of Intent to Invest must be filed with the county clerk of the county where the property owner resides. Notice of Intent to Invest includes the information that the proprietor has held a Texas Proprietor Registration, the date the proprietor intends to transfer the business to the person or persons interested in purchasing the property, and the date on which the business is to be transferred.

A Renewal Form is signed by the proprietor and submitted to the county clerk of the county where the property is located. A separate license plate and permit must be issued to the proprietor by the county clerk. This can be done online through the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation website or in person at the office.

A Certificate of Final Title is issued to the proprietor. This can be obtained through the county clerk or can be obtained directly from the county clerk's office.

Each state requires proprietor registration, and each state has its own requirements for proprietor registration, and Texas has a particular set of requirements as well. For complete information about the Texas requirements, go to the Texas Secretary of State website.
