Nevada LLC Annual Report: How to File an Annual or Amended List

It takes a lot of paperwork to launch a Nevada limited liability company (LLC). Unfortunately, this long list of obligations could continue indefinitely, even after your articles of organization are submitted.

After you officially form an LLC in Nevada, you’ll need to file an annual list of your LLC’s managers or managing members by the last day of your anniversary month every year. The annual list costs $150, and you renew your $200 State Business License at the same time. Fail to meet this requirement, and the status of your LLC could be at risk.

What Is an Annual Report?

An annual report is a yearly filing required for limited liability companies (LLCs). This document can serve many functions, depending on where and in what capacity it’s required. In Nevada, it’s primarily meant to verify or update the LLC’s managers or managing members.

While this yearly update is referred to as the annual report in many states, it is officially known as the annual list in Nevada. Although it holds some similarities with annual reports from other states, there are also many distinctions that warrant consideration. Still, this serves the same basic purpose wherever you go: to keep your LLC current.

Nevada LLC Annual List Requirements

As in most states, Nevada’s annual list is relatively straightforward. In fact, the process in Nevada is even more streamlined than in other states, as there is no need to include detailed explanations of your LLC’s purpose or industry.

In Nevada, the annual list is filed with the Secretary of State and can be submitted concurrently with a business license filing. In most cases, the completed filing will include the following details:

• Name of the entity. This should be identical to the name of the LLC that is already registered with the Secretary of State.
• Nevada Business Identification Number. Also known as the “NV Business ID,” this unique number is assigned when you file your articles of organization or can be issued alongside your state business license.
• Manager or member details. The annual list primarily consists of details about your LLC’s current leadership: the name, title and address of each manager, or of each managing member if there are no managers. Depending on the number of managers, you may need to attach a supplemental page to the document. This will ensure that everybody is mentioned.
• Annual or amended designation. If your LLC’s managers or members have remained the same in the past year, you may only need to file an annual list. If, however, you’ve made significant changes, you’ll file an amended list. The official form is essentially the same in both situations, but you’ll check a box designating the list as either annual or amended.
• Signature. When you’ve completed your annual form, you’ll need to sign prior to submitting it to the Secretary of State. Near the signature box, the document provides an important reminder: “that the information contained [therein] is correct… pursuant to NRS 239.330.” Keep in mind that forging this document (or providing false information) is deemed a category C felony. The list also includes a declaration that the LLC complies with Nevada’s business license law (NRS 76).
• Filing fees. The Nevada LLC cost for filing the annual list is $150 for the annual list and $200 for the State Business License renewal. Additional fees are required for expedited service: $125 to get the annual list processed in 24 hours. This fee increases dramatically if you only have a few hours to spare: $500 for two hours or $1,000 for one hour.

How to File an Annual List in Nevada

There are multiple methods available for filing Nevada’s annual or amended list. No one approach is preferred in every situation: A lot depends on when you file and which method you find most convenient.

Due Dates

Nevada LLCs file an initial list when they form. After that, the annual list is due by the last day of the LLC’s anniversary month every year. For example, an LLC formed on September 15, 2026 files its initial list at formation and its first annual list by September 30, 2027, then by September 30 every year after that. Early filing is encouraged, with annual lists available for submission 90 days prior to the official due date. File more than 90 days early, however, and your submission will only be relevant for the prior year. The Secretary of State sends a reminder about 90 days before your due date.

Nevada lets you choose an alternative due date by filing a Statement of Alternate Due Date with the Secretary of State. The current form is available in the ORION portal. It can’t be used to extend a deadline you’ve already missed.

File by Mail

The current form for the Nevada annual list is available in the ORION portal (older SilverFlume-era forms are no longer accepted). If you choose to file by mail, you can either:

• Type the requested information and print the completed form before mailing it.
• Print the form first and then enter the requested information using a dark pen.

Typically, filings are mailed to the Secretary of State’s main office in Carson City. Address the document to:

Secretary of State
Commercial Recordings Division
202 North Carson Street
Carson City NV 89701-4201

Expedited filings can also be mailed to the satellite office in Las Vegas:

Secretary of State
North Las Vegas City Hall
2250 Las Vegas Blvd. North
Suite 400, North Las Vegas, NV 89030

File Online

Online filing is done through Nevada’s ORION Business Portal, which replaced SilverFlume in September 2026. This service is provided by the Secretary of State, and you’ll need to sign in or create an account. In most cases, this is the preferred approach, as it’s the most straightforward and also allows you to complete other Nevada business procedures from a central online location.

File With a Compliance Service

Filing your annual report may not seem particularly difficult, but it does represent yet another obligation in a long list of business essentials. For some people, simply remembering to file the annual list is the biggest struggle. Others struggle to file in a timely manner.

If you’re having a tough time keeping up with so much paperwork, it may be worth your while to let a compliance service handle this and other time-consuming requirements.

What Happens if you Fail to File Your Nevada Annual List on Time?

The consequences of failing to file annual lists on time (or at all) can be harsh. As such, it’s important to keep on top of this annual obligation, or to get a compliance service to take care of this filing on your behalf.

Late Fees and Fines

The annual list must be in the “care, custody, and control of the Nevada Secretary of State” once the business day closes on the official due date. If it’s even one day late, it will need to be accompanied by a $75 fee. This is the most common penalty for filing late. Renewing your State Business License late adds a $100 penalty.

Default and Revocation

A late annual list puts your LLC in default. If it’s still not filed about a year later (on the first day of the anniversary of the month after it was due), the Secretary of State revokes your LLC’s charter and its right to do business in Nevada (NRS 86.274). These notices are sent to your LLC’s registered agent.

To get out of default, file the annual list as quickly as possible, along with the $75 late penalty. If your LLC has been revoked, you reinstate it by filing the missed lists and paying every missed fee and penalty, plus a $300 reinstatement fee. After 5 consecutive years of revocation, an LLC can’t be reinstated (NRS 86.276).

Conclusion

The Nevada annual list may seem like a burdensome obligation, but filing it doesn’t need to be difficult. Whether you handle this annual essential on your own or get a compliance service to take care of it on your behalf, you’ll enjoy full peace of mind once you’ve crossed this off your annual to-do list. If you no longer need the LLC, it’s better to formally dissolve your Nevada LLC than to let it go into default.
