If you set up a one-member LLC in Texas then, you must obtain your EIN for it only if it will have employees or you choose having it taxed as a corporation rather than a sole proprietorship. LLC owners can get an EIN through completing the online EIN application on the IRS website and there is no filing fee for it. • Business Licenses: Considering the type of business you run and its location, your LLC might require getting other local and state business licenses. To fetch more information, visit the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. • Comptroller of Public Accounts: If your LLC sells goods and collects sales tax then, you would require registering with the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. Considering the tax involved, you can register online through postal mail or in person at the Comptroller field office. This presentation is brought to you by Rapidregisteredagent.com
