The questions that matter

Do I have to name a registered agent?

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

The law: NRS 77.310. go check leg.state.nv.us, last confirmed October 2026

Who can be the agent?

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, name yourself and you won't pay an agent.

What's the going rate for an agent?

Agent prices on this page start at $99 to $149 a year, and three years of service come to $297 to $447.

Naming a different agent won't change any state fee.

Why does the state want one?

It's the LLC's contact in Nevada for legal papers and state letters.

What matters is that nothing important sits there unnoticed while you're away. Service of process, decoded

Anything due annually?

The Annual List of Managers or Managing Members and State Business License Application/Renewal is the one you can't forget. It's annual and runs $350. Per the state, it's due last day of the LLC's anniversary month.

go check nvsos.gov, last confirmed October 2026

Why this order?

Mainstay Filing takes jobs the price actually covers, which counts 30%.

We run five tests: money out the door in three years (35%), jobs the price actually covers (30%), no hunting for the price (14%), no surprise at renewal (11%) and where it works (10%).

Nevada Registered Agent.co has the smaller bill, but it only serves Nevada.

Still wondering?

Can I be my own agent?

Yes, if your address and status match the rule. Lots of owners still pay a service to keep their address private.

What address does an agent need?

The address has to be a street address in Nevada. A P.O. box alone is not enough.

What do the picks cost over three years?

Mainstay Filing will set you back $447, and Nevada Registered Agent.co will set you back $297, and Registered Agent NV.org will set you back $297

Are the fees official?

State fees come from Nevada's official documents, and service fees come from each company's own price page. Both are dated here.

Is a service required?

No. You can file with the state yourself. A service saves you time and can be your agent, but nothing makes you hire one.

Who's first in Nevada?

Mainstay Filing, because one account at $149 a year works in whatever state the LLC registers. After that, Nevada Registered Agent.co and Registered Agent NV.org.
