Rules that apply to a San Perlita business website
A few rules apply to any San Perlita business that sells or advertises online:
- Texas charges a 6.25% state sales and use tax, and local jurisdictions may add up to 2%, for a maximum combined rate of 8.25%. Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts
- Texas has no state-level general license, but city and county permits still apply, so check the local county and city government where the business operates. In San Perlita, that means asking Willacy County and the City of San Perlita. Official source
- The Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) exists, but its thresholds are high: The chapter reaches a person who does business in Texas or sells products or services consumed by Texans, processes or sells personal data, and is NOT a small business under the United States Small Business Administration definition. A typical small business is therefore outside the main obligations, but Section 541.107 still applies to it: a small business may not sell sensitive personal data without the consumer’s prior consent. Tex. Bus. & Com. Code Chapter 541 (HB 4, 88th Legislature, 2023)
