4Form 504—General Information
(Abandonment of Assumed Name Certificate)
The attached form is drafted to meet minimal statutory filing requirements pursuant to the relevant code
provisions. This form and the information provided are not substitutes for the advice and services of an
attorney and tax specialist.
Commentary
An entity that has filed an assumed business or professional name certificate under chapter 71 of the
Texas Business & Commerce Code (TBCC) which ceases to transact business or render services under
the assumed name certificate may file in the office of the secretary of state and county clerk a statement
of abandonment of that assumed name (TBCC § 71.153).
This form has been drafted for filing with the secretary of state. An abandonment of an assumed name
certificate filed with the county clerk must be notarized and contain original signatures. Consequently,
this form does not satisfy county filing requirements. An abandonment of an assumed name certificate
filed with the county clerk must be sent directly to the appropriate county clerk and not to the secretary
of state.
Instructions for Form
•
Items 1 and 2—Assumed Name and Date of Assumed Name Certificate: The abandonment of
the assumed name certificate must state the assumed name which is being abandoned and the date
the certificate of assumed name was filed in the office of the secretary of state.
•
Item 3—Entity Name: The abandonment of assumed name certificate must contain the legal name
of the entity as contained in its certificate of formation or comparable document filed with the
secretary of state. An incorporated entity, such as a bank or trust company, whose organizational
documents are not filed with the secretary of state, would set forth the legal name of the entity as
contained in its organizational documents.
•
Item 4—File Number: It is recommended that the file number assigned by the secretary of state be
provided to facilitate processing of the document.
•
Item 5—Office Address in Jurisdiction of Formation: Provide the street address of the registered
office or principal office of the entity in the state or country or other jurisdiction of formation. If the
entity does not maintain an office address in its jurisdiction of formation, provide the street address
of its registered office address in that jurisdiction. If the entity is not required by law to maintain a
registered office in its jurisdiction of formation, provide its principal office address in its jurisdiction
of formation.
•
Item 6—Registered Agent/Office Address in Texas: Complete item 6 only if the entity is:
a Texas corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership, cooperative association,
professional association, or
a foreign corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership, cooperative association,
professional association, or limited liability partnership registered with the secretary of state
to transact business.
