Steps

Submit the policy filing to SLTX through their online filing portal or API within the required filing deadline after binding

Receive and retain the SLTX stamp or filing confirmation number
Include the stamped confirmation in policy delivery to the insured and maintain records for the state-required retention period
Known gotchas
SLTX is the Texas stamping office — do not confuse with SLA Cal (California) or other state stamping offices; each state has its own stamping office, portal, and filing requirements
Texas surplus lines tax rates and any applicable assessments are set by statute and regulation; verify the current rate before computing tax remittance, as rates can change
Multi-state risks with a Texas exposure require allocation of premium to Texas for tax purposes; the allocation method must be documented and consistently applied
