Nevada Secretary of State and Corporations - Related Services
The Office of the Nevada SOS - The Place to File Your Corporation
January 13, 2005
By Tom SeFack
To incorporate in Nevada, you only have to submit
all the necessary forms and papers to The Nevada
Secretary of State and corporations that you have
filed will be processed in 2 hours if you pay the
appropriate $ 500 fee. Only select few business people
have a real need for such a quick processing of their
incorporation request, but it is good to know such
possibility exists - just in case.
Besides the 2 hours processing, the Nevada Secretary
of State's office also offers 24 hours expedite processing
and regular processing.
Web forms are available on the SOS web site in Adobe Acrobat PDF
format, or as paper forms upon request. Customer order instructions
for each relevant processing have to be followed accordingly, and
delivered with all necessary documents to facilitate the processing
service. SOS office will not fax orders back, so if the order is
not specified as a pick-up, it will be mailed out.
All corporations' trademark and trade name business is handled
by SOS Las Vegas office.
The office of the Secretary of State will also issue a Certificate
of Good Standing; $50.00 must be enclosed with the letter request
mentioning the name of the entity for which the certificate shall
be issued.
Corporations registered in Nevada are required by law to file List
of Officers, and information about resident agent, to Secretary
of State.
To avoid any misunderstandings, there is also a number of services
that the Nevada Secretary of State will not provide, namely filing
a DBA, which must be done on a county level. Name availability check
is only provided against a service fee, or on a business entities
search page of SOS's website. Tax information and tax questions
are better addressed to IRS for federal tax information and to Nevada
Department of Taxation for questions and issues regarding state
taxes.
