About this market

Market context

Corporate Tax in Houston primarily refers to the taxation of business entities operating within the city and the state of Texas. Professionals in this field focus on compliance, planning, and advisory services related to federal income tax and state-level business taxes, primarily the Texas Franchise Tax.

Texas does not have a corporate income tax. Instead, businesses operating in Houston are subject to the Texas Franchise Tax (also known as the 'margin tax'), administered by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. This tax is levied on a company's taxable margin, which is calculated based on total revenue less certain deductions, with various rate structures depending on the entity type and revenue thresholds. The current general tax rate is 0.375% for wholesalers and retailers and 0.75% for other entities, applicable to taxable entities with gross receipts exceeding $1.28 million for report years 2024 and 2025.
