# Nevada LLC Formation

> A Nevada LLC costs about $425 to start — $75 for the articles, $150 for the initial list of managers or members and $200 for the state business licence — and about $350 a year to renew the annual list and licence. Nevada has no personal or corporate income tax, though businesses with gross revenue above $4 million pay its Commerce Tax.

Nevada and Wyoming are both no-income-tax states; Nevada's annual costs are higher, so it fits best when you have Nevada operations or customers.

We form the LLC, file the initial list and licence, obtain the EIN and keep annual filings current.

## FAQs

### Nevada or Wyoming for a non-resident LLC?

Both have no state income tax. Wyoming's annual costs are lower, so it is usually preferred unless you have a Nevada connection.

### What is the Nevada state business licence?

A required annual licence for businesses formed in or doing business in Nevada, filed with the initial and annual lists.

### Does the LLC still file federal returns?

Yes. A foreign-owned single-member LLC files Form 5472 with a pro forma 1120 every year.
