Nevada LLC annual list and business license

Nevada separates its annual LLC obligation into two statutory charges that renew on the exact same date. First is the Annual List of Managers or Managing Members under NRS Chapter 86, which costs $150. Second is the annual State Business License renewal under NRS Chapter 76, which costs $200 for a limited liability company (corporations pay a higher license fee; do not use corporate fee tables for an LLC).

When the last day of your anniversary month passes without payment, both penalties attach immediately: $75 for the late Annual List and $100 for the late State Business License renewal. That pushes a $350 routine renewal to $525 overnight.

A narrow set of entities qualify to file a statutory State Business License exemption claim instead of paying the $200 license fee, depending on specific NRS exemption categories shown inside SilverFlume. Do not guess at an exemption; read the exact statutory categories on SilverFlume and consult a Nevada professional if you are unsure whether one applies to your LLC.

Neither the $350 state renewal nor any $175 late penalty is ever paid to LLC Deadline. When you buy a checklist here, you pay $19 once or $39/year for our preparation PDF and email schedule, and you pay the Nevada Secretary of State directly inside SilverFlume.

Unlike Wyoming (which uses the first day of the anniversary month) or Florida (which uses May 1 for everyone), Nevada sets an LLC's due date on the last calendar day of the month in which the Articles of Organization were originally filed. An LLC formed on March 4 is due by March 31 each year; an LLC formed on February 12 is due by February 28 (or February 29 in a leap year).

Do not forget the newly formed entity rule: right after forming a Nevada LLC, the Initial List of Managers or Managing Members and the initial State Business License are due by the last day of the first month following formation. After that initial filing is accepted, every subsequent annual renewal tracks the last day of your formation anniversary month.

SilverFlume opens the annual renewal window roughly 90 days before the month-end due date. Filing 30 days ahead of month-end protects you from card declines, SilverFlume login resets, or manager address lookups on the final evening of the month.

When a Nevada LLC misses the last day of its anniversary month, its status on the Nevada business search shifts from Active to Default, and the $175 combined late fees attach. Banks, lenders, and marketplaces checking Nevada good standing will immediately see Default status.

If the entity remains unfiled past the first day of the anniversary month in the following year (one full year delinquent), the charter is revoked (or foreign qualification forfeited). Revocation adds further reinstatement charges on top of every missed year's list fees, license fees, and late penalties.

Confirming your status takes thirty seconds on the Nevada Secretary of State business search before and after you file. Always download the official SilverFlume receipt and filed list PDF for your company minute book.

First, look up your Nevada Entity Number (for example, E0123452024-1) and Nevada Business ID (NV Business ID). SilverFlume links both identifiers to your profile so you can select the exact LLC without confusion.

Second, confirm whether your LLC is manager-managed or member-managed according to its Articles of Organization and operating records, and gather the current names and street/mailing addresses of every manager (or managing member) who will be listed on the public Annual List.

Third, verify that your Nevada registered agent is active and in good standing. If your agent resigned or moved without updating records, you must resolve the registered agent record so your entity stays compliant.

Fourth, have a valid payment method ready for the Nevada portal and check whether SilverFlume applies a card processing fee vs. ACH option at checkout.

All online filings run through SilverFlume, Nevada's official business portal linked in the first paragraph above, or by paper form submitted directly to the Nevada Secretary of State Commercial Recordings Division. LLC Deadline has zero affiliation with SilverFlume or the State of Nevada.

Our one-page PDF checklist prints your computed month-end due date, your Nevada Entity Number, the $150 + $200 fee split, the $75 + $100 late penalty breakdown, manager/member list reminders, and the direct official links so you complete both items in one sitting without surprises.

On the $39 yearly plan, we email reminders 30, 7, and 1 day before your stored Nevada month-end deadline from support@llcdeadline.com. You can update the stored date or cancel future renewals anytime by emailing that address.

Mistake one is completing the Initial List after formation and forgetting that the first Annual List still arrives at the one-year anniversary month-end—or conversely, skipping the Initial List thinking nothing is due for twelve months.

Mistake two is renewing the $150 Annual List by paper form while forgetting the $200 State Business License renewal (or vice versa). Using SilverFlume keeps both renewals paired in a single transaction.

Mistake three is confusing a corporation fee schedule with the LLC fee schedule. Nevada corporations calculate Annual List fees by authorized share capital and pay a $500 State Business License fee, whereas Nevada LLCs pay $150 for the list and $200 for the license.

Foreign LLCs registered to transact business in Nevada under NRS Chapter 86 follow the same $150 Annual List and $200 State Business License renewal structure tied to the anniversary month of their Nevada qualification filing, not the formation date in their home state. Always check the original Nevada filing date shown on your SilverFlume entity summary when setting your Nevada reminder date.

If your LLC has zero operations left in Nevada and you plan to wind down rather than pay another $350 renewal cycle, file official Articles of Dissolution (or cancellation of foreign registration) with the Nevada Secretary of State before your anniversary month closes. Simply walking away from an unneeded Nevada LLC leaves the entity in Default status with accruing annual fees and $175 yearly penalty layers.

Once SilverFlume processes your $350 renewal, download two documents into your permanent company folder: the itemized payment receipt and the stamped Annual List PDF showing the managers or managing members recorded for the new year. Banks opening business checking accounts or underwriting lines of credit frequently ask for the most recent filed Nevada Annual List alongside the Articles of Organization.

Remember what this site does and does not do: LLC Deadline never touches your SilverFlume login, never collects Nevada's $350 state charges, never acts as a commercial registered agent, and never shares your email or entity number with lead brokers. We are not a law firm; a registered agent; a Secretary of State; a tax preparer.

Check the official Nevada Secretary of State LLC fee page and SilverFlume portal before every payment cycle, because statutory fees, portal convenience fees, and exemption definitions are controlled exclusively by the State of Nevada and can be amended by the Nevada Legislature.
