How To Incorporate In Nevada

By Edward Cooper


Starting your own business is a dream come true for anyone who has the opportunity to do so. It takes a lot of planning and hard work to get the company off the ground. Lots of decisions need to be made, including where to legally register and incorporate your business. Nevada has laws on the book that make it easy to incorporate in Nevada, so this is a route you should seriously consider taking.

Nevada is a beacon for many people to incorporate there, and for good reason. First, the laws and regulations surrounding taxes are very favorable for business owners. Not only is there no franchise or equity tax, but there is also none on corporate incomes and shares. In addition, there is no state income tax, which makes workers want to flock to the state.

There are several steps you must take in order to formally incorporate your business in Nevada. The first sounds like the simplest and easiest, but should still be done with a lot of thought and reverance. The first step is to name your company. In order to be sure there is no other business with the same name, you can conduct a name check online to ensure your new moniker is unique.

Then, you must recruit your staff, particularly your managers if you are building an LLC or directors if you are starting a corporation. You must, by law, have at least one direct who is 18 years of age or higher. They do not have to be Nevada residents, which lets you cast a a much longer line for talent.

Once the management is ensconced, you can put their names on your paperwork and file it with the state. If you are a corporation, you file Articles of Incorporation, while an LLC would file Articles or Organization. Both sets of paperwork go to the Secretary of State.

Each city has particular permits and licenses that you may need to procure. Now is the time to do that, after the paperwork has been filed. There may also be other laws and regulations that need to be followed at all times, so be cognizant of that as well.

Nevada requires that you show proof that you are keeping business funds separate from personal ones, which is why you must start a separate corporate bank account. Proof of this separate account must be furnished upon request.

Once you receive your license from the state and any local permits, you can finally begin working. However, the law does require that you renew your paperwork and permit each year and file an annual report, both of which will cost you some money. Corporations pay $500 per year for the business license and $150 for the report filing. LLCs must pay only $200 for the license, and $200 for licensing.

Though your managers or directors do not have to reside in the state, you do need to have an actual physical location and some employees who do call Nevada home who work there. An address and phone number within the state boundaries is a must, so you should find a realtor to help you scout locations so you can put the final touch on your official incorporation.
