A search request should set forth the full correct name of a debtor or the name variant desired to be searched and must specify whether the debtor is an individual or an organization. The full name of an individual shall consist of a first name, a middle name or initial, and a last name, although a search request may be submitted with no middle name or initial and, if only a single name is presented (e.g., "Cher") it will be treated as a last name. The full name of an organization shall consist of the name of the organization as stated on the articles of incorporation or other organic documents in the state or country of organization or the name variant desired to be searched. A search request will be processed using the name in the exact form it is submitted.
2. (2) Requesting party. The name and address of the person to whom the search report is to be sent.
3. (3) Fee. The appropriate fee shall be enclosed, payable by a method described in §95.113 of this title.
4. (4) Search request with filing. If a filer requests a search at the time a UCC document is filed, by checking the box on the form set forth in §9.521, Texas Business and Commerce Code, or otherwise, the name to be searched will be the debtor name as set forth on the form, the requesting party will be the remitter of the UCC document, and the search request will be deemed to request a search that would be effective to retrieve all financing statements filed on or prior to the date the UCC document is filed.
