Layer by layer

Is a registered agent required?

Every LLC must name a registered agent with an in-state street address.

The law underneath: NRS 77.310. leg.state.nv.us holds the original, confirmed October 2026

Who qualifies?

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 qualify, you can serve yourself at no cost.

What is inside an agent's price?

A year of agent service runs $99 to $149 with our picks, and three years run $297 to $447.

No state fee depends on the agent you name.

What does an agent handle for the LLC?

The agent is the party that signs for lawsuits and state mail addressed to the LLC, at a Nevada street address.

If papers arrive and nobody accepts them, a case can move ahead without the LLC. What is service of process?

What does the LLC owe the state each year?

Year after year the recurring job is the Annual List of Managers or Managing Members and State Business License Application/Renewal: yearly, costing $350. The calendar line from the state reads last day of the LLC's anniversary month.

nvsos.gov holds the original, confirmed October 2026

Why is the stack in this order?

Mainstay Filing is strongest on what is inside the price, a layer worth 29% of the score.

Two layers carry most of the weight, total across three years (34%) and what is inside the price (29%).

Only the first pick holds up in all fifty states, and that counts the day the LLC registers elsewhere.
