First year $199 (state's $75 separate); $99 after

Number one is Nevada Registered Agent.co, since you pay $199 with the first agent year included and $99 yearly afterward.

The tiebreaker is cost, and three years here come in under Mainstay Filing.

Your money buys

  • Agent included for year one

The good

  • Agent covered in year one
  • $99 a year from year two

2. Registered Agent NV.org: best for a one-state add-on

First year $199 (state's $75 separate); $99 after

3. Mainstay Filing: best for the same fee anywhere

Mainstay Filing comes next since it charges $199 plus state fees and waives the registered agent for the first year.

At $100 more than Nevada Registered Agent.co over three years, it lands lower on our list.

You skip the registered agent charge in year one and pay $149 a year after.

Your questions, answered

At what point do I register?

Doing business in Nevada with an LLC formed somewhere else means registering at the start.

bizhub.nv.gov, confirmed October 2026 (official)

What does it cost to register in a new state?

State fee $75; service $199 extra.

Add up the state's fees across three years and it's $775. bizhub.nv.gov, confirmed October 2026 (official)

What gets submitted?

You file the Application for registration as a foreign limited-liability company with the Nevada Secretary of State, Commercial Recordings Division. That's the whole filing.

The filing needs no proof from the home state.

What does staying registered cost?

Next up is the Annual list and State Business License renewal, at $350.

The due date reads: end of the anniversary month.

How did you decide the order?

It comes down to cost across three years, and Nevada Registered Agent.co is best at it.

Cost across three years (33%) and work taken off your hands (31%) matter most, and three lighter checks sit behind them.

You'd pay $397 over three years at Nevada Registered Agent.co, which is $100 less than at Mainstay Filing.

FAQ

Do I need an agent in each state?

Both states apply their own rules, so your home state still wants an agent. A company that works in every state, like Mainstay Filing, can cover the pair.

How do the three-year costs stack up?

Over three years you'd pay $397 at Nevada Registered Agent.co, $397 at Registered Agent NV.org, $497 at Mainstay Filing, and state fees are separate.

What do the numbers rest on?

Official Nevada sources on the state side and company pricing on the service side, all dated.

Is a filing service a must?

No law says you must hire anyone.

Is filing included in what they sell?

They do. What the state charges is fixed, and only the service fee varies.

Who do you like best in Nevada?

Nevada Registered Agent.co is on top because the service fees come to $397 across three years; Registered Agent NV.org and Mainstay Filing follow.
