Texas Brand Registration

Texas does not have a statewide brand registry database. Texas counties may have county-level brand archives.

Every 10 years, Texas requires that brands be re-registered in the county or counties in which you operate.

Pursuant to Texas Agricultural Code 144.044 all marks, brands, and tattoos registered with the county clerk expired on Aug. 30, 2021.  

Any previously recorded marks/brand/tattoos not re-registered by Feb. 28, 2022, were considered unclaimed and eligible for registration by another. Any marks/brands/tattoos registered after Aug. 30, 2022, will be good until Aug. 31, 2031, when the next renewal period for marks/brands/tattoos will begin.

Please note: Some counties offer online brand registration. Contact your County Clerk for more information.
