NEVADA DEPARTMENT
OF TAXATION
Per notification from the Nevada Department of Taxation, NRS 360-780
became effective 7/22/2003 and is now being enforced. The NRS 360-780
states that a person or business entity shall not conduct business
in the state of Nevada without obtaining a Nevada State Business License
from the Department of Taxation. Additionally, a business is defined
to include the following: sole proprietorship, corporation, partnership,
proprietorship, limited-liability company, business association, joint
venture limited liability partnership, business trust or equivalent
entities organized under the laws of Nevada or another jurisdiction.
The Nevada State Business License is required for all business entities,
regardless of being a domestic or foreign Nevada entity. Nor is it
relevant whether a business entity has employees in Nevada or a physical
location in Nevada, the Nevada Business License is required.
A Nevada Business Registration form and Supplemental Information form
is available from the following website: http://tax.state.nv.us
Both forms must be submitted, the Business License Application form
is $100.00 plus a $15.00 minimum fee for the Supplemental Information
form.
The forms must be signed by a person who is specifically authorized
to sign applications on the entitys behalf (owner, officer,
member
). The application, supplemental form and fees can be
mailed to the following address:

Department
of Taxation
1550 E. College Parkway, Suite 115
Carson City, NV 89706-7937 |
The Business License fee of $100 will also need to be filed annually
thereafter before the last day of the issuance anniversary month.
Otherwise, a written statement must be submitted to the Taxation Department
at least ten days prior to the issuance anniversary date indicating
that the person or entity will no longer be conducting business in
Nevada. If no annual fee or withdrawal statement is received at that
time, an additional penalty fee of $100 will be added to the annual
fee.
It is also further recommended that the entity receive approval for
a Foreign Certificate of Authority (if applicable) prior to applying
for the Business License. In doing so, the entity name will already
be approved with a proper filing date with the Nevada Secretary of
State and the Business License will most likely be approved more quickly.
The telephone number for the Nevada Department of Taxation is (775)
684-2000. |
