Mainstay Filing takes the top spot because one yearly charge of $199 files the Nevada formation, serves as your registered agent and files the annual list; renewal is $199.
Renewal includes Mainstay filing the Annual List of Managers or Managing Members and State Business License Application/Renewal on your behalf. The state fee in Nevada is $350 every year, due last day of the LLC's anniversary month, with $175 added if it is late, and Mainstay passes that fee through at cost.
Its three-year total is $200 above Registered Agent NV.org's, and what the price covers justifies that gap for us.

Nevada LLC service pricing in 2026: first year, renewals, three-year total
Every price comes from the company's own pages as of November 12, 2026. The $425 Nevada filing fee comes on top of each row and is left out of the totals.
Why Mainstay Filing is first
Two criteria count most here, three-year price and what the price covers, at 28% each, while renewal terms, fit for the state and price clarity divide 44%. What tipped Nevada was what the price covers.
Nevada asks for a report each year and charges $350, plus $175 when it is late. Mainstay's price covers that filing and Registered Agent NV.org's does not, so coverage beat Registered Agent NV.org's lower three-year bill.
Every criterion and weight is set out on How we rank.
