Who must file in Nevada
Domestic and foreign corporations, LLCs, and nonprofit corporations registered in Nevada.
The filing is separate from the entity’s income tax return, sales tax return, and payroll filings. Being current with the annual report does not by itself mean the entity is current on its taxes, and vice versa.

How to file the Nevada annual report
- Confirm the entity and registered agent. Use the name and entity number on file with the Nevada Secretary of State, Commercial Recordings Division. Confirm the registered agent and principal office are current.
- Gather the required information. Most reports ask for the principal office, registered agent, and the names or addresses of officers, directors, managers, or members.
- Prepare and review the report. Use the state’s online filing system or the current paper form. Review the entity type and filing period before submitting.
- Pay the state fee. The fee is paid to the state, separate from any service fee charged by our office. Save the confirmation and filed copy.
- Calendar the next deadline. Add the next annual or biennial due date to the entity calendar, and coordinate it with the registered agent and tax calendars.
What happens if the Nevada report is late?
A late annual list incurs a $75 penalty, and a late business license renewal adds a $100 penalty. Continued delinquency can lead to revocation or dissolution.
If the entity has already lost good standing, reinstatement is usually a separate filing with its own fee. The longer the report remains unfiled, the more likely the state is to dissolve, revoke, or administratively terminate the entity.
Nevada filing notes
Nevada’s annual compliance cost includes both the annual list and the state business license. The business license is a separate recurring fee, not a franchise tax, and the total is higher than the formation fee suggests.
Qualifying 501(c) nonprofits may be exempt from the business license but must claim the exemption. The annual list updates the entity’s managers, members, officers, directors, and registered agent.
