Nevada Company Formation Requirements

What are the company formation requirements in Nevada? Nevada does not have a specific residence provision except that “S” corporation owners have to be US citizens or residents. Company directors can also incorporate remotely but must register the names of all directors to the state authorities. You must list the directors’ names and addresses in your Articles of Incorporation, and all directors must be at least 18 years old. 

What else do you need to know about the requirements for company formation in Nevada?

In Nevada, you need a registered office and agent. The director does not have to be a shareholder in the corporation and Nevada law allows for nominee shareholders. Nevada corporations are allowed to issue shares and sell stock in their companies. One person can hold all corporate officer positions if you’re forming an LLC. 

The documents you must present as part of the Nevada company formation requirements are:

  • Fees for initial filing, annual renewal fees and obtaining a federal tax identification number
  • Articles of Incorporation
  • Registered Agent who must have a physical address in Nevada that can receive tax and legal documents during normal working hours 
  • Initial List of Officers/Directors
  • Business License
