What is an LLC?
A limited liability company (LLC) is a type of business entity you can register in Nevada. The main purpose of an LLC company is to limit the personal liability of its owners—like a C corporation or S corporation—but it also allows the business to operate with simpler, more flexible tax requirements.
Do I need an LLC?
An LLC isn't always required, but many small business owners choose to form an LLC for personal liability protection. Having an LLC can also help you open bank accounts, enter into contracts, hire employees, and get necessary business licenses and permits.
What does LLC formation mean?
When you form an LLC, you submit a specific set of business forms in Nevada. Once it's approved, you can use this separate entity to record business expenses, take on business debts, file taxes, obtain business licenses, and more—and this is what gives you liability protection.
How easy is it to form an LLC?
You may be a little intimidated by the idea of forming a legal entity like an LLC, especially if it's your first time. All you need is an understanding of what your business will do, how you plan to run it, and Nevada’s LLC filing fees. Even if your business requires a retail location, you don't need a physical address lined up to begin your LLC formation.

How to start an LLC
To form an LLC, you'll need to file articles of organization in Nevada, following its own rules, but our experience we’ll keep things moving when we file on your behalf.
Here are a few things you'll need to keep in mind to get your LLC up and running in Las Vegas.
Choose and reserve a name
It's wise to check your LLC name against similar businesses in your area. We include a business name check with our formation services and can reserve a preferred business name for you.
Pick a registered agent (RA)
Also called a statutory agent or resident agent, an RA receives your LLC's legal notices and legal documents during normal business hours. Nevada require this, and we can do it for you.
File articles of organization
Also called a certificate of formation, this business form contains basic details about your LLC. When we file this for you, it's typically sent to the Secretary of State.
Determine licenses needed
You'll also need to apply for any specific permits or business licenses that may be required for compliance, although it's wise to wait until your LLC's formation documents are approved.
Prepare an operating agreement
This outlines your LLC's rules for everything from business structure to profit distribution. Our templates make it easy for LLC owners to define their rights and limit disagreements.
Get an Employer ID Number (EIN)
Most businesses need an EIN (also called a Federal Tax ID Number) to set up a business bank account, file taxes, and start hiring. When it's time to get yours, we can help.
