Nevada NV

Filing the Articles of Organization in Nevada costs $425. After that, expect $350 a year for the annual list and business license. Annual list ($150) plus state business license renewal ($200) = $350 per year, due the last day of your formation anniversary month. The $425 initial cost is $75 Articles of Organization + $150 initial list + $200 state business license. A commercial registered agent, if you need one, is typically $50–$300 a year extra.

Yes. Nevada does not require US citizenship, residency or an SSN to own an LLC; you need a Nevada registered agent address and then an EIN from the IRS (by fax or mail with Form SS-4 if you have no SSN). A foreign-owned single-member LLC must also file Form 5472 with the IRS every year, even with no US income. Check what Nevada publishes, since member or manager names may appear in public filings. US-formed LLCs are exempt from FinCEN beneficial ownership (BOI) reporting after the March 2025 interim rule; only entities formed under foreign law and registered in the US must still report.

No personal income tax on wages. No state personal income tax. Corporate: No corporate income tax.

Only if you operate in Nevada or want its asset-protection laws. If you live and do business in another state, you will also have to register there as a foreign LLC and pay both states' fees, so a Nevada LLC often costs $700+ per year for no tax benefit.
