How Cummings & Cummings Law Helps You Move an LLC to Texas While Keeping Your EIN

Moving an LLC to Texas while keeping your EIN matters because redomestication changes where your company is domiciled without changing the identity of the business itself, preserving your credit history, contracts, banking relationships, and federal tax identification number. Cummings & Cummings Law handles this as a done-for-you service combining attorney and CPA expertise to manage the legal and tax complexity of the move.
Why keeping your EIN when moving to Texas protects your business continuity
Your EIN is the federal identifier tied to your business credit, tax filings, and banking accounts. When you move an LLC to Texas through redomestication rather than dissolution and reformation, the company maintains its EIN and all associated relationships. This means your business credit score, existing contracts with suppliers and clients, and current banking arrangements remain intact without interruption. A move that loses the EIN requires rebuilding credit from scratch and renegotiating contracts, creating months of operational friction.
How redomestication differs from simply starting over in Texas
Redomestication is a legal process that changes the state where your company is domiciled, not the identity of the business itself. This is different from dissolving your old LLC and forming a new one in Texas, which would require a new EIN, new contracts, and new banking setup. Cummings & Cummings Law describes the process as brain surgery on your business, a complex multifaceted legal transaction impacting state and federal law. The firm handles all document preparation and filing through a Texas attorney and CPA working together.
What the process looks like with Cummings & Cummings Law
The firm operates on a remote-first model using DocuSign signatures and email updates, with no snail mail or waiting. You provide the information and signatures, and the firm takes it from there. The service includes a Redomestication Closing and Tax Continuity Packet delivered when the process completes. The firm states it performs more redomestications than any law firm in Texas. Specific pricing is not publicly listed on the website; interested businesses should contact the firm directly through their Texas redomestication page for a quote.
When to consider moving your LLC to Texas
Texas has no state income tax, which can create significant tax savings depending on your business income and structure. Cummings & Cummings Law offers a free interactive tax savings calculator that compares all 50 states and shows illustrative one year and five year tax savings based on your business income, though actual tax outcomes depend on residency and income sourcing. The firm also notes that if the redomestication process does not fit your company, they will tell you, meaning not every business is a candidate for this approach.
