WHAT'S INCLUDED

The Certificate of Fact, Status
Is What They're Actually Asking For

Texas doesn't issue anything literally called a "Certificate of Good Standing." What lenders and title companies actually mean is the Secretary of State's Certificate of Fact: Status, sometimes called a certificate of existence. It's a separate document from the Comptroller's Certificate of Account Status, and it's the one most counterparties are actually asking for.

​

We confirm your status directly with the Secretary of State, request the certificate, and deliver it to you as a clean PDF with a plain-English cover note explaining what it proves. Nothing added at checkout.

WHAT THIS DOESN'T COVER

We Won't Take Your $99
for a Document the State Won't Release

If your entity isn't in good standing, usually from an unfiled franchise tax report or Public Information Report, the Secretary of State won't issue this certificate at all, for us or for anyone.

 

That's why we check status before you order. If your check above comes back not active, we'll point you to our Texas Franchise Tax Reinstatement service to fix the underlying issue first.

WHY THERE'S NO RISK

We Confirm Before You Pay a Dollar

We confirm your status with the Secretary of State before you pay anything. You only see a checkout button once we already know we can deliver. From there, certificates are typically issued within 24 hours, often the same business day.

Frequently asked questions

Is a Texas Certificate of Good Standing the same as a Certificate of Fact?

Yes. Texas doesn't issue a document literally called a Certificate of Good Standing. What you receive is the Secretary of State's Certificate of Fact: Status, and that's what lenders, title companies, and other states mean when they ask for good standing.

How fast can I get my Texas Certificate of Fact?

Most certificates are delivered the same business day or the next business day after your status is confirmed and your order is placed.

What do I need the Certificate of Good Standing for?

Most often a lender during a loan application, a title company during a closing, or another state's agency when you're registering to do business outside Texas.

What if my business isn't in good standing?

Use the checker at the top of this page before you order. If your entity is forfeited, we'll show you that immediately, at no charge, and point you to our reinstatement service.
