Texas and federal rules for small business websites

Having a website does not change the rules, but a few apply to many Argyle businesses:

• Fake or bought reviews are illegal under a federal rule in force since 2024 (16 CFR Part 465): post only real ones. 16 CFR Part 465
• Doing business under a name that is not your legal name? Texas calls that an assumed name certificate (DBA), and it has to be registered first. Tex. Bus. & Com. Code Chapter 71
• 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 Argyle, that means asking Denton County and the City of Argyle. Official source

Rules change and details vary by business; this is general information, not legal advice.
