Because the registered agent must consent to serve in writing, the best practice is to maintain the consent in the corporate or LLC records. See Tex. Bus. Orgs. Code § 5.201.
Caution: Before using any SOS forms, the attorney should verify their currency by visiting the secretary of state’s website at www.sos.state.tx.us or by calling (512) 463-5555. Note that many of these forms may also be filed online through SOSDirect.
