Legal Question in Business Law in Texas

regestered agent

We plan to start marketing our funeral products nationwide through our website. Does selling in other states require that we have a registered agent in each foreign state? Does it also mean that we will need to file tax returns in each foreign state?

Re: regestered agent

Simply by selling your product in another state, does not require you to have a registered agent there. On the other hand, if selling a "funeral product" requires you to register in that state, then you would have to have a registered agent. The issue of state taxes is somewhat more complicated and depends a great deal on physical presence. Would suggest you contact someone with experience in both areas and significantly more detail than you provide here.

In general, no. But each state may view your product differently and have specific requirements for funeral products.
