If you are planning to incorporate or form an LLC inNevada, you will need to appoint a Nevada registered agent. A registered agent essentially acts as your company’s physical presence in the state and is the person or business entity that receives official documents and legal notices on your company’s behalf then forwards them to wherever you are physically located.
If your place of business will be located in Nevada, any person who is available at that address during business hours can serve as your registered agent. However, you will need to appoint a registered agent in Nevada if your company is formed in Nevada but operates in another state.
It is important that you select your Nevada registered agent prior to submitting your company’s formation paperwork because the state requires the registered agent’s name and address at that time. If you are uncertain of how to find a registered agent in Nevada, MyNewCompany.com is a member of the Nevada Registered Agents Association and can provide you with a Nevada registered agent for only $99/year – guaranteed never to increase for the life of your company (be careful of “bait and switch” introductory or “free” rates from competing services that jump to as high as $369/year!).
MyNewCompany.com’s registered agent service ensures statutory compliance and immediate notification and delivery of all official forms and legal documents (scanned and uploaded to your account for convenience). The service also provides the benefit of an extra layer of privacy between you and your company, prevents junk mail to your home or business and offers easy online updating at no additional cost.

Forming a Nevada corporation comes with a number of benefits that might be worthwhile. Nevada corporation owners enjoy a pro-business atmosphere, low-tax mentality and freedom from information sharing with the IRS (opposed to other states that have agreed to share your company information). Personal liability protection, prestige and convenience are some additional advantages to incorporating in Nevada.
To get started with forming your corporation in Nevada, you will first need to confirm that your company name is available with the Nevada Secretary of State. Please note that you will need to include a corporate identifier such as Inc., Corp. or Ltd. You can verify that your Nevada corporation name is available through a search with the Nevada Secretary of State online.
Before you go on to file any paperwork with the state, you will need to appoint a Nevada registered agent. Your registered agent will serve as your main point of physical contact in Nevada and must be available during business hours to receive official state documents and any other legal papers. If you incorporate in Nevada because you plan to operate your business here and will have a physical office, then someone at that location can serve as your registered agent. Otherwise, you will need to select a registered agent provider. MyNewCompany.com can provide you with a Nevada registered agent for only $99/year and is a member of the Nevada Registered Agents Association.
Now that you’ve appointed a registered agent, you can file your state paperwork to incorporate in Nevada. You will also need to obtain a Federal Tax ID and open a Nevada business bank account, and submit foreign qualification paperwork with the state where you will do business if you will not be operating in Nevada. Please be aware of companies that promise you a Nevada company without having to foreign qualify in your actual state of operation. Virtually every state requires that a Nevada company “re-register” in that state to do business there, so if you are operating in a state other than Nevada, you may be required to pay additional fees.
