Notes: Domestic or foreign Texas limited liability companies (including professional LLCs) must file a Public Information Report when they file their annual franchise tax with the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. There is no separate submission to the Texas Secretary of State.
In California, LLCs are not required to hold annual meetings or keep formal meeting minutes. The absence of such requirements provides LLC members with greater flexibility in managing their businesses.
After an initial filing, some states—such as California, Iowa, and Indiana— require LLCs to file a report every other year. In some states, you'll file a report every two years from the year you formed your LLC.
In Texas, LLCs do not need to be renewed each year like in some other states. However, Texas does impose a franchise tax on LLCs. This is an annual tax based on the LLC's revenue. While there is no annual renewal requirement for the LLC itself, the franchise tax report acts as a type of annual check-in with the state.
Member and Manager Meetings in Limited Liability Companies Unlike corporations, neither Texas nor Delaware law require LLCs to hold annual meetings or maintain minutes of meetings if they are held – this holds true for members and managers (FYI, LLCs don't always have managers).
Unlike most states, Texas does not require LLCs to file annual reports. Despite this, LLCs in the state of Texas are required to file annual franchise tax reports.
Having an annual meeting and keeping a record of what was discussed helps validate that business owners are treating the limited liability company as a separate legal entity. That measure reinforces the corporate veil that protects LLC members' personal assets from the company's legal and financial liabilities.
