Start your Nevada LLC, usually filed within 1 business hour

How it works

Forming an LLC in Nevada with HourLLC

1. Pick a name. Your Nevada LLC name must include an LLC designator such as "LLC" or "Limited Liability Company" and must not already be taken. We check availability before filing; give us a backup name on the form in case your first choice is taken.
2. Fill out a 3 minute form. Members, a Nevada registered agent, and your business address. Nevada filings are public records, so a business address rather than a home address is a common choice.
3. Review and pay. One total: $99 plus Nevada's state fee at cost. No upsells.
4. We usually file within 1 business hour. We prepare and submit your Articles of Organization to the Nevada Secretary of State (SilverFlume). When Nevada approves it, we email your filing receipt and stamped Articles of Organization as PDFs and keep them in Documents at My account. Then we get your EIN.

After your Nevada LLC is approved

Nevada LLCs file an Initial List of managers or members and renew the Nevada State Business License when they form, then file an Annual List and renew the license every year.

Your EIN is included: we apply to the IRS for it together with your state filing, so you can open a business bank account and file taxes under the LLC.

Almost every state requires a registered agent with a street address in the state who accepts official mail and legal papers during business hours. You can be your own registered agent if you have a Nevada address, or use a commercial registered agent.

What every HourLLC order includes

• Name availability check before filing
• Articles of Organization usually filed with the state within 1 business hour
• EIN from the IRS (federal tax ID)
• Free operating agreement
• Filing receipt and stamped, approved Articles of Organization, emailed as PDFs
• Annual report reminders, free with every LLC

Choosing a Nevada LLC formation service

Compare the all-in price, not the starting price. Ask each service: is the EIN included, is an operating agreement included, when exactly do you file, and what renews every year? With HourLLC the answer is one price ($99 plus Nevada's fee at cost), EIN and operating agreement included, usually filed within 1 business hour, and no yearly fee for the LLC itself. See a side by side comparison.

Yearly cost after your Nevada LLC is formed

Nevada LLCs file an Initial List of managers or members and renew the Nevada State Business License when they form, then file an Annual List and renew the license every year. We send free reminders before it is due.

Rules and costs

Nevada LLC name rules

A Nevada LLC name must include “Limited-Liability Company”, “Limited Liability Company”, “Limited Company”, “Limited”, “Ltd.”, “L.L.C.”, “L.C.”, “LLC” or “LC”. It also has to be different from names already on file with the state. "Company" may be shortened to "Co.". Words like "accountant", "accounting", "accountancy", "auditor" or "auditing" need approval from the Nevada State Board of Accountancy. The name must be distinguishable from names already on file.

You can reserve a name before you file for $25 (good for 90 days). Most people skip this: we check the name and file right away, and you can give us a backup name.

Nevada registered agent

The LLC must have a registered agent with a street address in Nevada for service of process. That street address is the LLC's registered office.

On our order form you name your registered agent and their Nevada street address. It can be you, if you have a street address in Nevada, or a commercial registered agent service.

Getting an EIN for your Nevada LLC

An EIN (Employer Identification Number) is your LLC's federal tax ID. It comes from the IRS, not from Nevada, and the IRS does not charge for it. You need it to open a business bank account, hire employees and file business taxes. Every HourLLC order includes it: we prepare and submit the EIN application together with your state filing and send you the IRS confirmation letter.

If your LLC will sell taxable goods or services or hire employees, you may also need to register for Nevada state tax accounts. That is a separate step with the state.

Nevada LLC cost breakdown

Add our $99 service fee once, at formation. There is no yearly HourLLC fee for the LLC itself.

Other Nevada rules to know

Nevada's State Business License renews every year for $200, with a $100 penalty if it is late.

Checked on official Nevada sources on November 5, 2026: name rules, registered agent, name reservation, annual report, other rules. Rules and fees can change; we confirm them before we file.
