What is a Nevada LLC?
- The Nevada Limited Liability Company is a blend between a partnership and a corporation combining the best attributes of both.
- You get the tax treatment and ease of management of the partnership and the limited liability protection of the corporation.
- The Nevada LLC has the flexibility to be taxed as pass-through partnership or like a corporation.
- Owners of the LLC, called members, get full limited liability protection from personally being responsible for the actions or debts of the LLC – within limits just like the corporation.
Nevada LLC Simplicity:
Nevada LLCs do not have the long and sometimes burdensome history of the Nevada corporation that has not changed significantly in hundreds of years. You will not have to manage all the requirements that Nevada corporations do including annual meetings, notices for those meetings, and formal voting that will ultimately have to be recorded within the corporate record book.
Nevada LLC Taxes:
Nevada LLCs can be taxed a multitude of ways and will be categorized into the following:
- Sole Proprietorship: If your Nevada LLC has only one member (not recommended), the IRS will deem it a disregarded entity. A single member LLC, disregarded entity, will be taxed as a Sole Proprietor.
- Partnership: If your Nevada LLC has more than one member (recommended), the IRS will allow partnership taxation or pass through taxation.
- C or S Corp: You can elect to be taxed as a normal C Corporation or even an S Corporation.
