Most states have a bar that is a government-sanctioned body, charged with the regulation and licensing of attorneys. Some states also have a voluntary bar association that focuses on advancing and improving the legal profession. In other states, one organization serves both functions.
Nevada has NO RECIPROCITY OR ADMISSION BY MOTION of any kind.

In other states, one organization serves both functions. In every state, however, there is at least one entity that exists to streamline and support the legal profession and to engage with the public to assure confidence in and accountability for attorneys.
Mostly, no. Most practice areas are governed by state law, and those will require a State Bar license. Even fields of law that are primarily federal—bankruptcy, immigration, etc. —may require a State Bar license.
California doesn't offer reciprocity but offers a shorter bar exam for attorneys who are admitted in other states and who have been in good standing as an attorney in those states for at least four years prior to their application.
Texas's additional reciprocity requirements include: Law Degree. A law degree from an ABA approved law school (determined at the time of enrollment or graduation and not at a later date). Character and Fitness.
In every U.S. jurisdiction except Wisconsin, Oregon, and Washington, all those seeking admission to the bar must pass a bar examination.
The Certificate of Good Standing (also referred to as the Certificate of Status or Certificate of Existence) is an official document issued by the Nevada Secretary of State that certifies that the legal entity is registered with the State and is in compliance with state requirements.
