A Nevada Certificate Pursuant to NRS 78.209(NRS78.209) is an official document from the Nevada Secretary of State's office that grants an entity (such as a corporation or limited liability company) the authority to do business in the state. This certificate is required for any company that wishes to transact business in Nevada, as it provides evidence that the company has registered with the state and is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. There are two types of Nevada Certificates Pursuant to NRS 78.209(NRS78.209): a Certificate of Good Standing and a Certificate of Existence. The Certificate of Good Standing verifies that a business has met all the requirements to legally conduct business in Nevada and is in good standing with the state. The Certificate of Existence confirms that a business entity is legally established and authorized to do business in the state.
