Nevada Annual Report Filing Fee
The cost to file an Annual Report varies by entity
Corporations: The cost to file an Annual Report for a Nevada Corporation is based on the value of the shares that are authorized in the Articles of Incorporation. The minimum cost for the Annual List is $150, and an additional $500 for the Business License.
LLCs/LPs/LLLPs/LLLPs: The Annual Report filing fee for a Nevada LLC, LP, or LLLP is $150 for the Annual List and $200 for the Business License.
Annual Report Due Date
The Annual Report deadline is the last day of the entity’s anniversary month. For example, if your business entity was formed on January 1st, 2024, the deadline for the first Annual Report will be January 31st, 2025. Filings can be made 90 days in advance of the due date.
The Secretary of State’s office emails a reminder in advance of the Annual Report due date. Even though a reminder is sent, it’s important to make an additional reminder for yourself should you not receive it.
Nevada Annual Report FAQs
My business made little or no money. Do I still have to file the Annual Report?
Even if your Corporation or LLC received no income or had no business activity, the Annual Report is still required to be filed.
What happens if you don’t file the Annual Report on time?
If the Annual Report isn’t filed on time, a $75 late fee penalty is assessed for the Annual List and $100 for the Business License, in addition to the business entity being placed in Default Status. Being in Default Status, means losing the status of good standing with the state and may make it difficult for the entity to prove its existence when signing up with new vendors, loans, etc. Eventually, the entity will be administratively dissolved by the Secretary of State.
