Nevada Corporation (Nevada C-Corporation)

The Nevada corporation (the C-Corporation as it is commonly know as) is one of the most popular and commonly incorporated entity in the State of Nevada. As a matter of fact, over 17,000 new Nevada corporations were formed in 2010 alone.

One of the primary benefits of the Nevada corporation comes in the form of asset protection. The corporate veil created by the laws of the State of Nevada, has effectively formed a strong barrier which separates the assets of the Nevada corporation from the personal assets help by the corporate shareholders/business owners.

The Nevada Incorporation Process

We firmly believe that if you are planning on forming a Nevada corporation, it is important for you to know the process of incorporating in the State of Nevada. For this reason, we have outlined the process below. Now, don't let the details scare you. Remember, we're here to help you through the process, and will gladly answer any questions you may have.

To form a Nevada corporation the following forms will need to be filled out and submitted to the Nevada Secretary of State:
  • Articles of Incorporation
  • Initial List of Officers and State Business License

Articles of Incorporation

The Articles of Incorporation (or the "Articles" as they are commonly referred to) is the document that actually creates your Nevada corporation. To complete this document, you will need to know:
  • The name of the Nevada corporation
  • Who will serve as your Nevada Registered Agent
  • Total number of shares and the par value of those shares
  • Who the Directors of the corporation will be
Once you have this information on hand, you will be able to fill out the Articles for your Nevada corporation.

The Nevada Secretary of State has conveniently created a template which they require you to use for your Articles. This template can be downloaded from the "Business Center" of the Nevada Secretary of State's web site.


Initial List of Officers & Nevada State Business License

The Initial List of Officers is the second requirement in the Nevada corporation formation process. This document provides the Nevada Secretary of State a listing of the officers of the corporation and also covers the filing for the Nevada State Business License (so you take care of two requirements with one document).

It is very important that the Initial List be filed and filed on time. Without it, your Nevada corporation is not complete in the eyes of the Nevada Secretary of State. Many people inadvertently over look this document and then end up getting hit with excessive late fees which are imposed by the Nevada Secretary of State. Don't be one of them!

Once the Articles and the Initial List of Officers are filed, your State filing requirements are complete for a period of one year.

This is a fantastic service provided by the Nevada Secretary of State as it allows you to get your Nevada corporation up and running the very same day without the added cost of expedite fees!
