As of August 31, 2024, process server certifications in Texas are now valid for two years, instead of three.

PROCESS SERVERS

Effective immediately, certifications for process servers will become a 2-year certification instead of the current 3-year certification. Renewal fees will be different. All new certifications issued will likewise be on a 2-year certification cycle. If your certification expired on or 9/1/2017 and you renewed on or after 9/1/2017, the two-year cycle affects you. Those whose certifications were renewed 09/01/17 to present will receive an email from us with any additional information regarding their certifications.

Continuing education requirements may change. Updated information will be posted as soon as it is available. We are in the process of updating our rules as well.

Questions or concerns regarding this matter must be submitted to processservers@txcourts.gov.
