Nevada Foreign Registration / List and license form

Nevada's list and State Business License application

Nevada's Annual or Amended List and State Business License Application is filed with a foreign LLC's registration as its initial list ($150) and State Business License application ($200), and the same form is used for every annual list after that. It names the LLC's managers or managing members and carries a declaration signed under penalty of perjury.

The fields on the form

Field	What it asks
Annual or amended	Check one; an initial list is filed as the annual list at registration
Name of entity	Exactly as registered in Nevada
Entity or Nevada Business ID	The NVID, once the state has assigned one
Entity type	Check one: corporation, nonprofit corporation, LLC, limited partnership, LLLP, business trust or corporation sole
Managers or managing members	Each person's name, title and address; extra names on a supplemental page
State Business License	The license fee, or a claimed exemption
Declaration	Business license compliance, the false-filing acknowledgment, and no concealment of who manages the LLC
Signature	A manager or managing member, or another authorized person, certifying the list as true, complete and accurate

The form asks for typing or dark ink and no highlighting. A publicly traded corporation also gives its Central Index Key.

The declaration, in plain words

Every list filed under NRS 86.5461 comes with three statements made under penalty of perjury: the LLC has complied with Chapter 76, the business license law; it acknowledges that knowingly offering a false or forged instrument for filing is a category C felony; and none of the managers or managing members is named to hide the identity of whoever really runs the company in furtherance of unlawful conduct. Under the felony provision the punishment is 1 to 5 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000 (NRS 239.330).

Who goes on the list

For a foreign LLC the list names all of its managers, or if it has no managers, all of its managing members, with a residence or business address for each (NRS 86.5461). It is a public record, so most owners give a business address. Members who are not managing members are not listed.

The license part

For companies formed under Nevada's Title 7 entity laws, and foreign ones registered under them, the State Business License fee is due when the initial or annual list is due, in addition to the list fee, and it renews every year. An LLC pays $200; a corporation pays $500. Some businesses are exempt from the license; claiming an exemption takes the list off the online route, since online lists are available only where no exemption is claimed.

Fees connected with the list

Filing	Fee
Initial list (at registration)	$150
Annual list	$150
Amended list within 60 days of the initial list	No fee
Late list	$75 added
Resignation of a manager or managing member	$75
24-hour expedite for list filings	$125

Common list mistakes

Listing every member. A manager-managed LLC lists its managers only; members who do not manage stay off.
Missing titles. The list asks for each person's title as well as name and address.
The wrong entity box. The form serves corporations, partnerships and trusts too; check the Limited-Liability Company box.
An exemption claimed by mistake. Claiming a license exemption a foreign LLC does not qualify for, which also rules out online filing.

A list calendar

An LLC registered on September 12 files its initial list with the registration. Its first annual list is then due by September 30 of the next year, with the license renewal, and every September after that. Filing in October means the $75 late fee on top of $350.

Filing it later in the year

At registration the list goes in on paper with the application. From the second year it can go in online through SilverFlume, which handles most transactions on the day they arrive, free of any extra charge. Each list is due by the end of the registration's anniversary month, or by an alternative due date the LLC has chosen (NRS 86.5461(11)). The annual list page covers missed deadlines and reinstatement.

List questions

Who signs the list?

A manager or managing member, or another person the LLC specifically authorizes, who certifies that the list is true, complete and accurate.

Can the initial list be filed online with the registration?

No. The foreign application is a paper filing, so its initial list goes with it on paper. Later lists can go online.

A manager left a month after we registered. What do we file?

An amended list. Within 60 days of the initial list it costs nothing; a manager's own resignation filing is $75.
