Amendments of Articles
There are times when a business needs to change the information included in the Articles of Incorporation or Articles of Organization. To do this, you need to file an amendment with the Secretary of State. Nevada allows certain information, such as officer or Resident Agent information, to be updated by the corporation's or LLC's annual list of officers, recognizing that this information can frequently change. However, for the majority of the information included in the formation documents, a certificate of amendment must be filed with the state in order to make a change. If you need help, we can handle the filing of amendments for you.
Certificate of Good Standing
This is a must for all entities that are registering as foreign entities in the states in which they are doing business. It is required by other states to know that this entity is in "good standing" with Nevada before they will allow registration in their state. Typically, the entity will register in the state where you live. The entity may be required to register in other states also. This certificate is valid for anywhere from 30-90 days. This depends upon the state's requirements in which registration will take place.
Foreign Registration - "Registration in Your Home State"
This is a must for a company that needs to register as a foreign entity in the states in which the entity is conducting business. This is typically at least the state where you reside, because typically you are either an employee of the corporation or the manager of an LLC. Both of those events require the corporation or LLC to register in your home state. Nevada LLC Solutions will complete the necessary forms to register the entity in the states where the entity is required to register. The forms will be complete with instructions on where to send the completed forms and the fees involved. This service is a must before you can start conducting business in a state. The entity will also need this before a bank account or business license can be obtained.

Nevada State Business License
This license is required for every entity formed in Nevada, which is not doing business in Nevada and does not have employees in Nevada. This service is required for every entity that is registering as a foreign entity in a different state. If you are not registering, you do not need this service. Your entity would than need a complete business license in Nevada.
Nominee Service
If you do not want your name to appear anywhere on the public record, you can choose our Nominee Services for privacy. Call us for details. One of our nominee agents will be listed as the director and all officers for public record. The use of Nominee service has been practiced in the State of Nevada for around 75 years. Typically, this service, provides the name and signature of a nominee on the annual list of officers filed with the Secretary of State, the only NRS 78 mandated public record of the corporation. The use of nominee service is inherent in many of the strategies used by Nevada Corporations. A Nominee Officer, or Director when properly used has no authority to act in any manner for the corporation except that as a nominee signer.
Nominee Stockholders
The use of nominee stockholders is far less common, but the flexibility of this device enables strategies that would otherwise be considered "impossible." Many regulations aimed at determining a corporation's status are determined on the basis of ownership. In Nevada, it is relatively easy for the real owners of a corporation to enjoy privacy of ownership: For any matter of record, the corporation's stock may be held by any number of "outside" entities, persons or corporations. Again, the reason this works in Nevada is that stockholders are not a matter of public record.
