Texas has no statute requiring a landlord to give advance notice before entering a residential rental unit. Whether and how much notice is required is governed entirely by the lease. If the lease is silent, no advance notice is statutorily mandated, though landlords cannot use entry to harass or retaliate under Tex. Prop. Code Ch. 92.
No statutory requirement in Texas governs a residential landlord's right of entry or sets a notice period before entry; this is left to the lease. Texas Law Help confirms a landlord must give advance notice "only if the lease says so," and the widely used Texas Apartment Association lease "does not require advance notice, but it does require the landlord to leave a note after entering." A tenant who wants notice must negotiate it into the written lease. The general protections in Tex. Prop. Code Ch. 92 still apply: a landlord may not enter to harass the tenant or interrupt utilities, and entries that punish a tenant for exercising a legal right can constitute prohibited retaliation.
No specific statutory penalty for entry, because no entry statute exists. Entry that breaches the lease, harasses the tenant, or is retaliatory can expose the landlord to remedies under the lease and under the anti-retaliation provisions of Tex. Prop. Code Ch. 92.
