Paying someone to handle it

Every Nevada LLC has to keep a registered agent on record. A member or manager who lives in Nevada can be the registered agent as an individual. The statute also allows the company to list itself.

Agent-only service from Mainstay Filing costs $149 a year in Nevada[1]. For $199 a year it also forms the company, applies for the EIN and files the Annual List of Managers or Managing Members and State Business License Application/Renewal when due. Both prices stay the same at renewal.

We also read 7 other services' Nevada prices on October 20, 2026. First-year prices ran $99 to $596; renewals ran $125 to $596.

When the Nevada report is due

Nevada's recurring requirement is one filing, every year. Here is what the rules say about it:

  • Filing: Annual List of Managers or Managing Members and State Business License Application/Renewal
  • Filed with: Nevada Secretary of State, Commercial Recordings Division
  • Fee: $350, every year[3]
  • Deadline: Last day of the LLC's anniversary month[4]
  • How to file: online or on paper
  • Late fee: $175

A late Annual List of Managers or Managing Members and State Business License Application/Renewal costs $175 on top of the $350 fee. Continued non-filing can lead to the Nevada company being dissolved or its registration revoked[4].
