How Much Does It Cost to Form a Nevada LLC?
Nevada is one of the more affordable states to form an LLC. But the state filing fee is only part of the picture. This page breaks down every cost you'll encounter — formation, ongoing compliance, and optional services — so there are no surprises.
State Filing Fee
The Nevada Secretary of State charges $75 to file your Articles of Organization. This is a one-time fee paid when you form the LLC.
Annual / Recurring State Fees
Nevada charges $350 for the annual report (filed each year). Miss it, and you risk late fees and eventually administrative dissolution.
Nevada tax note: Annual costs: $150 Annual List of Managers/Members + $200 State Business License = $350/year. Initial List ($150) and Business License ($200) also required at formation (total initial cost $425). No state income tax. $75 penalty for late Annual List; $100 penalty for late Business License.
