Nevada Annual Report Guide for Businesses

Filing your Nevada Annual Report—known as the Annual List—is a key compliance requirement for all businesses registered in the state. This filing ensures the Secretary of State has current information about your company’s management and registered agent, helping maintain transparency and protecting your good standing.

Annual Report Requirements
In Nevada, the annual report is called an Annual List.
Filing this report is mandatory for maintaining good
standing with the Secretary of State. It updates the
state’s records with current management and registered agent information, ensuring transparency and legal compliance.
Who Must File
According to Nevada state regulations, both Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) and corporations are
mandated to file an annual list with the Nevada Secretary of
State. This requirement applies to both domestic entities
(formed within Nevada) and foreign entities (formed
outside Nevada but registered to do business within the
state).

It is essential for all such business structures to adhere to
this filing obligation to avoid penalties and maintain their
legal status.
Required Information
To complete the filing, businesses must provide:
  • LLCs: Names and addresses of managers or managing members
  • Corporations: Names and addresses of officers and directors
This information keeps the public record accurate and confirms who is responsible for the entity’s governance and operations.
Filing Deadlines for Nevada Business Entity Types
Nevada ties its filing deadlines to the entity’s anniversary month. The Annual List is due by the last day of the anniversary month. For example, if an entity was formed on April 16, the report is due by April 30 each year.
  • LLCs & Corporations: End of anniversary month
Businesses should track this date closely to avoid late penalties and loss of good standing.
Fees and Costs
As of 2023, the state of Nevada imposes specific fees for the annual list filing and business license renewal.
  • Annual List Filing Fee (LLCs): $150 (flat).
  • Annual List Filing Fee (Corporations): Starts at $150 and increases based on the corporation’s authorized stock value, up to a maximum of $11,125.
  • Business License Renewal (LLCs): $200 (in addition to the $150 annual list fee, for a total of $350 annually).
  • Business License Renewal (Corporations): $500 (in addition to the annual list fee above).
These fees are paid annually and are subject to change. Always verify the latest amounts with the Secretary of State or SilverFlume portal before filing.
