State fees
Forming an LLC in Nevada
Nevada charges $425 to form an LLC and $350 a year to keep, for a company with no revenue in the state.
Often assumed to be cheap. The state business licence and the annual list of managers or members are both charged every year, so it costs several times more than Wyoming to keep.
