Starting a company in Nevada
Domestic LLC filing fee
Nevada domestic LLC Articles of Organization cost $75.00, but initial registration also requires an Initial List of Managers or Members ($150.00) and the Nevada State Business License ($200.00), making the basic state startup total $425.00 before payment charges. The articles require a Nevada registered agent and office and management information.
Domestic corporation filing fee
Nevada domestic corporation Articles of Incorporation have a share-based filing fee starting at $75.00, with the Initial List generally $150.00 and the $200.00 state business license due at startup. The exact corporation formation total depends on authorized shares under the current SilverFlume schedule; the articles must state shares, agent, office, and incorporator.
Registering a company formed elsewhere
For state registration, “foreign” can mean a company formed in another U.S. state. These fees are separate from creating a new Nevada entity.
Foreign LLC qualification
Foreign LLC registration generally requires a $75.00 application, $150.00 initial list, and $200.00 Nevada business license, subject to the entity and current SilverFlume fees. A home-state certificate, Nevada registered agent and office, and the registration name are required.
Foreign corporation qualification
Foreign corporation qualification uses a share-based application fee plus the initial list and $200.00 state business license. SilverFlume calculates the exact amount from authorized shares and entity type; a home-state certificate and Nevada agent/office are required.
Nevada processing times
SilverFlume electronic filings provide immediate submission and many transactions can be processed quickly, but acceptance depends on completeness, payment, and name availability. The portal receipt is not a charter or certificate until the filing is accepted.
Expedited filing options
Nevada SilverFlume offers expedited or 24-hour options for some filings, but the reviewed public extract did not establish one universal 2026 tier and price for all LLC and corporation formations. Use the live checkout for the exact service; the $200 business license is not an expedite fee.
