Single fact

How much does it cost to form an LLC in Nevada?

The statutory fee to file Nevada Articles of Organization is $75.00, and because Nevada adds no e-payment surcharge or bundled component to this transaction, the effective remittance is also $75.00. That figure is recorded at high confidence and was last checked on 2026-08-04. It is also not what it costs to stand a Nevada LLC up: the first-year state total is $575.00, which ranks Nevada 49 of 51 nationally.

The number most sources get wrong

$75.00 is not what it costs to stand up a Nevada LLC on day one. Nevada requires an initial list of managers or members at $150.00 due by the end of the month following formation, and a state business licence at $200.00 a year. The annual list then runs $150.00. The realistic first-year state total is $575.00, and the recurring annual cost is $350.00 - not $75.00. Each of those components is held as a separate record with its own citation rather than being silently folded into a single marketing number, which is why the arithmetic can be shown rather than asserted.
