Nevada requires the consent of the other spouse to sell or encumber the assets or goodwill of a business both spouses help manage, under Nev. Rev. Stat. 123.230(6), and both spouses must join to convey community real property
Nevada Gaming Commission and Gaming Control Board approval is required for any change of control of gaming-licensed entities, with extensive background investigations of new owners

Nevada Legal Framework for Business Acquisition Law

Non-Compete Agreements

Enforceable with restrictions for low-wage workers. Blue-pencil available.

Enforceable under NRS 613.195 if reasonable. Nevada courts blue-pencil overbroad restrictions. The statute requires that non-competes be supported by valuable consideration. In 2021, Nevada enacted restrictions (SB 47) prohibiting non-competes for hourly employees or employees paid at or below a specified compensation level. Non-competes arising from the sale of a business are given broader latitude.

Tax Considerations

Nevada has no corporate income tax, no personal income tax, and no franchise tax. The state imposes a Commerce Tax (0.051%-0.331%) on gross revenue exceeding $4 million, varying by industry. As a community property state, Nevada requires the consent of the other spouse to sell or encumber the assets or goodwill of a business both spouses help manage, and both spouses must join to convey community real property, under Nev. Rev. Stat. 123.230(6). Nevada's favorable tax profile makes it attractive for entity structuring.

Filing Requirements

Entity mergers and conversions must be filed with the Nevada Secretary of State. Bulk sales compliance requires 45-day advance creditor notice. Annual lists (reports) are required with relatively high filing fees. Business licenses are required from the Nevada Secretary of State.

Bulk Sales / Asset Purchases

Nevada has repealed Article 6 (Bulk Transfers) of its Uniform Commercial Code, so no bulk sales notice to creditors is required. Buyers should address successor liability for unpaid Nevada taxes with the Department of Taxation and rely on contractual indemnities and escrows.
