Las Colinas and the Airport
Irving, between Dallas and DFW International Airport, had about 257,000 residents in the Census Bureau's 2025 estimate. Las Colinas, a planned business district built around Lake Carolyn and the Mandalay Canal, holds the headquarters of eight Fortune 500 companies, including McKesson, Caterpillar, Kimberly-Clark, Fluor and Celanese. The western part of the city borders the airport, where freight, logistics and airline businesses cluster. Irving is also one of the most diverse cities in Texas. BOMCAS works with Irving clients remotely.
The Texas overview lays out the statewide rules; this page is about Irving.
Taxes in Irving
Irving levies no income tax, and neither does Texas. For companies, the main state obligations are the franchise tax and an 8.25 percent sales tax in which DART's share is a full cent. Hotel stays carry 15 percent tax, among the higher rates in the region. Property is valued by the Dallas Central Appraisal District with bills from the city, Dallas County, Irving ISD or a neighbouring district, Parkland's hospital district and Dallas College.
Our Irving Clients
We work with suppliers and contractors serving the headquarters campuses, freight forwarders and customs brokers, hotels and event businesses, data centre contractors, technology consultancies, restaurants and stores, executives with stock pay, airline crews and families from around the world.
Neighbourhoods and Districts
Las Colinas includes the Urban Center, the convention centre and the Toyota Music Factory. South Irving holds older neighbourhoods and the historic downtown along Main Street. North Irving and Valley Ranch hold newer homes and apartments, and the area around Highway 114 and the airport holds hotels, offices and warehouses. DART's Orange Line links them to downtown Dallas and the airport.
Where Clients Usually Start
A consultancy owner who has never reviewed which states his employees work in. A hotel facing a hotel tax audit. An executive whose RSU sales were taxed twice. A newly arrived family with accounts back home and no idea about FBAR. The first step is the same for each: gather two years of filings and statements, find the gaps and rank them by cost and deadline.
An Irving Tax Year
- Late January: W-2s, RSU statements and broker supplements start arriving; Dallas County property tax is due by the 31st.
- Mid-April: individual returns and FBARs (FBARs extend automatically to October), plus Dallas Central Appraisal District renditions.
- Mid-May: Texas franchise tax report and most value protests.
- Every month or quarter: sales, hotel and mixed beverage tax returns for Irving businesses.
How We Work
We work remotely through secure uploads, video meetings and cloud accounting. Our services cover tax returns, bookkeeping, payroll and projections; for legal questions and representation at hearings, clients use their own attorneys.
How BOMCAS Helps in Irving
Irving businesses often start with bookkeeping for contracts, hotels and client funds, payroll for shifts and multistate staff and sales and hotel tax. Once the year closes, those records become federal returns and the franchise tax report, and the owners', executives' and crew members' household returns follow, giving a basis for planning the next year. Anyone carrying missed FBARs, stock errors or unregistered states should begin with late filing help, while international residents and foreign-owned companies rely on cross-border tax.
Our Texas pages set out the state rules on business returns, personal returns, sales and hotel tax, bookkeeping, payroll, tax planning, catch-up filing and cross-border tax.
