Why Incorporate in Nevada State?
Why were nearly 60,000 entities formed last year?
Unfortunately, most for the wrong reasons;
attempting to save state income tax and privacy.
The right reason; Piercing the Entity Veil
Nevada state is the most difficult state in the country in which to pierce the corporate veil. This means it is the most difficult state to break through the corporation and go after its officers or shareholders personally. To pierce the veil of a Nevada state corporation requires proving each part of a three-prong test in order to win your case. Unless outright fraud is involved, it is almost impossible to pierce the corporate veil in Nevada.
No wonder why so many attorneys have you incorporate in Nevada first, even if the corporation has to register as a foreign corporation in your state. You will not find better protection anywhere!Thin Capital Rules (Both Corporations and LLCs)You can capitalize a Nevada entity with $100 or less. In many states it is a good idea to have at least $1,000 or more to capitalize an entity. Nevada also allows you to issue stock or certificates for services.
Also in many states, corporate veils are being pierced because of too little capitalization. This is not true in Nevada !Low Profile (Both Corporations and LLCs)The owners are not listed in any state or public records! Whether you are an attorney or the IRS, you cannot determine who the owner is of a Nevada state corporation or LLC by calling the Secretary of State. If you want to safeguard against lawsuits, privacy is important!

(Both Corporations and LLCs)Nevada is the only state in the country that does not exchange information with the IRS! No financial or ownership information is shared. Nevada has become the domestic haven of choice, offering an unmatched and powerful pro-business environment.No State Corporate Taxes (Corporate Benefit)*Nevada has NO state corporate taxes.
It also has no franchise tax, estate tax, stock transfer tax, capital gains tax, personal income tax, inventory tax, tax on corporate shares, inheritance tax, estate tax, gift tax or minimum tax! Corporations and LLCs require only an annual fee of $125. A federal tax return must be filed annually, even if there is no activity. Most Nevada companies have to register in the state(s) that they do business; therefore, this benefit will not exist for such companies. This is a great motivator for companies to relocate their operations in Nevada!
This advantage is not available to 95% of companies looking to incorporate in Nevada because they will have to register in their home state of operations.* LLCs in Nevada are not taxed at the entity level (the state where the entity registers may be different).
They are like S corporations and Limited Partnerships (having two members and being taxed as a partnership is usually ideal).Only One Person Required
(Corporate Benefit, LLCs Require Two)*One person can hold the offices of President, Secretary, and Treasurer and be the sole Director. Many states require at least three officers and/or directors.
Thus, there is no need to involve other parties in a Nevada state corporation, unless the owner desires. Keep in mind that officers of a corporation are not necessarily the owners, nor do they have to be Nevada residents. *An LLC is best structured with at least two people or entities to form it. Nevada does allow single member LLCs, but that is not recommended.50 Years of Case Law (Corporate Benefit)Nevada has over 50 years of case law backing up its corporations.
The court system in Nevada is very pro-business oriented. The landmark case (Roland vs. Lepire) in 1983 showcased how difficult it is to pierce the corporate veil in Nevada.I Don’t Live in Nevada. Can I Still Form a Corporation or LLC There?Yes, and the key question will be, "Do you have to register as a foreign entity doing business in your home state?" Most of the time the answer will be yes. Don’t be misled by what other companies may tell you. In Indiana, a foreign corporation doing business in Indiana without authority, is subject to a penalty of $10,000.
Setting up a sham operation will only cause legal and tax challenges for you. Now, keep in mind a Nevada Corporation or LLC is an entity of Nevada. As a corporate officer or member of an LLC you can live anywhere in the world. The key is can you establish your company operations in Nevada which means having your employees located in Nevada.
