Misleading communications entitled “State of Texas Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statement Request Form” are making the rounds, asking companies to confirm their data and remit payment to Texas UCC Statement Service for a copy of the Financing Statement.
If you receive mail or an email that claims to be an official state notice demanding payment, please know it is not legitimate unless it comes directly from the Secretary of State’s office or your commercial or non-commercial registered agent. If someone is demanding money from you for an annual report, renewal of registration, or license, be sure to look at the entity that sent the correspondence. If it is from anyone other than with whom you have a registration or license, you should double check with that agency.
Please contact Crowell State Bank if you have additional questions about this. 940-684-1531
