Texas rules to know before your website goes live

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Texas rules as any other.

  • A contact form collects personal information, and Texas has a data breach law with deadlines for notifying the people affected. Tex. Bus. & Com. Code Section 521.053
  • 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
  • Local business tax receipts in Texas can come from the county and, inside city or town limits, from the municipality: for you, Fort Bend County and Thompsons. Official source
