section 5.059 of the BOC;

chapter 79,
subchapter

secretary of state to provide a preliminary determination on name availability, you may call (512)
463-5555, dial 7-1-1 for relay services, or e-mail your name inquiry to corpinfo@sos.state.tx.us. A
final determination cannot be made until the document is received and processed by the secretary of
state. Do not make financial expenditures or execute documents based on a preliminary clearance.
Also note that the preclearance of a name or the issuance of a certificate under a name does not
authorize the use of a name in violation of another person’s rights to the name.
Item 2A—Assumed Name: If the entity name fails to contain an appropriate organizational
designation for the entity type, a recognized organizational designation should be added to the legal
name and set forth in item 2A. Accepted organizational designations for a foreign PLLC are the
words “professional limited liability company” or an abbreviation of those terms.
Item 2B—Assumed Name: If it has been determined that the entity’s legal name is not available for
its use in Texas due to a conflict with a previously existing name, the foreign entity must obtain its
registration to transact business under an assumed name that complies with chapter 5 of the BOC.
State the assumed name that the foreign entity elects to adopt for use in Texas in item 2B of the
certificate.
In addition, the foreign entity is required to file an assumed name certificate in
compliance with chapter 71 of the Texas Business & Commerce Code. The promulgated form for
filing the assumed name with the secretary of state is Form 503. This form is not acceptable for
filing with the county clerk.
Item 3—Federal Employer Identification Number: Enter the entity’s federal employer
identification number (FEIN) in the space provided. The FEIN is a 9-digit number (e.g., 12-
3456789) that is issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). If the entity has not received its
FEIN at the time of submission, this should be noted in item 3 on the application form. Provision of
the FEIN number at the time of submission will assist in the establishment of the entity’s tax account
with the Comptroller of Public Accounts.
Item 4—Jurisdictional Information: The application must state the foreign entity’s jurisdiction of
formation and the date of its formation in the format shown in the application.
Item 5—Certification of Existence: The application must contain a statement that the entity exists

formation.
