Unlike most states, Texas does not require LLCs to file annual reports. Despite this, LLCs in the state of Texas are required to file annual franchise tax reports.
LLCs are not legally required to hold annual meetings by the state in which they register, but many do.

These are documents that include the LLC's articles of organization and the operating agreement.
