Nevada Business License

The Fastest Way to Get Your Nevada Business License


Nevada state business licenses are not easy to understand, let alone obtain. Business Licenses, LLC cuts through the clutter and helps business owners understand their Nevada state business license requirements.

April 23, 2020 Update: Needless to say, the Coronavirus has dramatically affected economic conditions in Nevada and every other state too. Nevertheless, business owners are still filing for licenses and permits, authorities are still requiring them, and Business Licenses, LLC is still assisting customers with Business License Compliance Packages for Nevada. Business Licenses, LLC’s partners are indeed sponsoring free BLCPs for many qualifying business owners.

December 10, 2020 Update: For the past decade, Nevada business licenses have been handled by the Secretary of State's office, rather than the Department of Taxation. The move was intended to promote smoother processing for the various startup businesses that seek a home in The Silver State. However, business owners in a hurry can still expect a lag time between requesting a business license and getting it signed, sealed, and delivered.

Nevada does accept online applications for a business license, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you can expedite a business license application. Making matters worse, most businesses are going to require more than a mere state-level business license (which is the only kind that is actually processed by the Secretary of State's office). Beside for that, there are many business license and permit requirements at the county and local level. Given the various rules and regulations among the many counties and cities within the state, there's a real complex maze for entrepreneurs in Nevada to navigate. It's best to get started early.
