Tex. Fam. Code § 3.002 · high confidence · as of 2026-06-21 · TY 2025
Texas is a community property state: property acquired during marriage is community property (Tex. Fam. Code § 3.002)
'Community property' means property, other than separate property, acquired by either spouse during marriage.
Note: Texas is a community property state; however, Texas has no state income tax (Art. VIII, Sec. 24 of TX Constitution). Community property classification affects federal filing (each spouse reports one-half of community income on federal return) and estate planning, but has no direct TX income tax consequence.
