Texas Tax-Exempt Entities Registry

Texas state government records list organizations exempt from Sales and Use, Franchise, and Hotel Occupancy taxes. Data.texas.gov maintains this registry, which was last updated in November 2022. Statewide groups may be listed under 'All Branches' for the city field instead of separate entries for local chapters.

Use Cases

• Analyze geographic distribution of tax-exempt entities using County, City, and Zip Code columns.
• Identify organizations holding specific tax exemptions by filtering the Franchise, Sales, and Hotel boolean columns.
• Link entity records via Taxpayer ID for compliance tracking or merging with other state datasets.

Strengths

• Covers three major state tax types: Franchise, Sales, and Hotel Occupancy tax.
• Includes geographic identifiers like County, City, and Zip Code for spatial analysis.

Limitations

• Sample size and total row count are unknown, limiting assessment of statistical power.
• Potential for duplicate or consolidated records as statewide groups may have a single 'All Branches' entry.
