What owners want to know

Can I name anyone?

A commercial registered agent, a noncommercial agent (an individual or entity with a physical Nevada address), or the title of an office in the company itself. Anyone acting as agent for 10 or more companies has to register as a commercial agent.

If you meet the rule, name yourself and pay no agent fee.

How much does an agent cost?

Your choice of agent does not change any state fee.

Why does the state want an agent?

Think of it as the LLC's mailbox in Nevada for court papers and government letters.

A good agent tells you quickly when something arrives, which is worth asking about before you sign up. What is service of process?

What does the LLC owe the state each year?

After formation you owe the Annual List of Managers or Managing Members and State Business License Application/Renewal every year ($350). Be ready by this date, per the state: last day of the LLC's anniversary month.
