In short
Opening a staffing agency in Houston means a Texas entity, state unemployment insurance and withholding registration, workers' compensation cover, and enough working capital to carry payroll while clients pay on terms. Texas has no state income tax withholding, which removes a payroll registration step but does not change unemployment insurance obligations.
