Nevada LLC — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to form an LLC in Nevada?
The state filing fee to form an LLC in Nevada is $75. That's one of the more affordable states to form an LLC. On top of that, plan for $350 each year in annual report fees. Our formation service is $199, which includes the state fee, registered agent for the first year, operating agreement, and EIN assistance.
How long does it take to form an LLC in Nevada?
Standard processing runs 3-5 business days. If you pay $125 for expedited service, you can usually get to 24 hours. We file on your behalf and notify you as soon as the Nevada Secretary of State processes the formation.
Does Nevada require an annual report for LLCs?
Yes, every year. The fee is $350. Missing the filing deadline can lead to late fees and eventually administrative dissolution by the Nevada Secretary of State.
Do I need a registered agent for my Nevada LLC?
Yes. Every LLC registered with the Nevada Secretary of State is required to maintain a registered agent with a physical Nevada address. This is true from the moment you file your formation documents and remains true for as long as the LLC exists. We provide this service — first year included with formation, $99/year after that.
Can I form an LLC in Nevada if I live in another state?
Yes. You don't have to be a Nevada resident to form a Nevada LLC. You do, however, need a registered agent with a physical Nevada address — which is included when you form through us.
Do I need an operating agreement for my Nevada LLC?
Nevada doesn't require you to file an operating agreement with the state, but you absolutely should have one. Banks require it to open a business account. Courts rely on it in disputes. Without one, Nevada's default LLC rules apply — which may not match your intentions. Our formation package includes a customizable operating agreement template.
How do I get an EIN for my Nevada LLC?
Apply directly on IRS.gov — it's free and takes about 10 minutes. You'll receive your EIN immediately after completing the online application. Never pay a third party for an EIN. Our formation package includes EIN application assistance to walk you through it.
What's included in your $199 formation package?
Everything you need to form your Nevada LLC: Articles of Organization preparation and filing, $75 state fee paid to the Nevada Secretary of State, first year of registered agent service, operating agreement template, EIN application assistance, and an online dashboard for document storage and compliance tracking.
