Data Availability

API access: US-NV is not yet part of the public countryCode enum. Contact us to enable it on your workspace. Requests sent with countryCode: "US-NV" will otherwise return 400 until the enum is expanded.

Data Sources

Nevada uses a single integration against the Nevada Secretary of State, SilverFlume Business Portal (esos.nv.gov/EntitySearch/OnlineEntitySearch). The portal indexes every corporation, LLC, limited partnership, business trust, nonprofit, and other commercial entity registered under the Nevada Revised Statutes. Unlike many US states, Nevada publishes the full officer roster on the free public entity page. Every officer, director, and manager reported on the most recent annual or amended list is visible without any paid tier. This means a single request powers company data, legal representatives, and the registered agent together. Nevada does not publish a free bulk dataset. The Secretary of State offers bulk data only through a paid subscription programme; the public portal is the sole free access path. All requests are served live from the portal.

Nevada Business Entity Extract included. Every company data request also delivers the printable Nevada Business Entity Extract (a PDF of the SilverFlume entity page) at no extra charge. No separate document purchase is needed.

Company Identifiers

Query Identifiers

Identifier	Format	Example	Notes
Entity Number	Alphanumeric prefix + sequence, optional dash-separated revision	`LLC1688-2002`	Primary identifier assigned by the Nevada Secretary of State. Used to look up entities on SilverFlume.
NV Business ID	`NV` followed by an 11-digit sequence	`NV20021018811`	Cross-agency identifier shared with the Nevada Department of Taxation. Accepted as an alternative search input.

Both the Entity Number and the NV Business ID are accepted as query inputs. The Entity Number is the primary key. Pass it as-is with the letter prefix and any dash-separated revision suffix. Stripping the prefix or suffix will not resolve correctly.

Identifiers in API Response

Identifier	Format	Example	Found In
`entityNumber`	Alphanumeric prefix + sequence	`LLC1688-2002`	All entities
`nvBusinessId`	`NV` + 11 digits	`NV20021018811`	Most entities (not present on all records)

Search Capabilities

Search Type	Pattern	Example	Match Type	Expected Results
By Name	2–100 chars	`"Wynn"`	Starts-with (case-insensitive)	Multiple results
By Entity Number	Alphanumeric prefix + digits	`LLC1688-2002`	Exact	Single match (`matchType: id`)
By NV Business ID	`NV` + 11 digits	`NV20021018811`	Exact	Single match (`matchType: id`)

Name search anchors on the start. A query for "Wynn" returns entities whose legal name begins with Wynn. Use longer query strings to narrow results; the result set is capped at 50 matches. Passing an Entity Number or NV Business ID into the name search field will not find a match. Use the identifier search instead.

Quirks & Gotchas

Quirk	Details
Entity Number prefix is load-bearing	Entity Numbers have a letter prefix that encodes the entity class (e.g. `LLC`, `C`, `LP`, `NV`, `E`). Do not strip or normalise the prefix: the portal treats `LLC1688-2002` and `1688-2002` as different (unresolvable) keys.
SilverFlume renders type codes in the legal form label	The portal displays entity type as `"Domestic Corporation (78)"` where `78` is an internal code. The API strips the trailing code and returns only the clean label in `legalForm.localName`.
Name Reservation is not a legal entity	SilverFlume can return a `Name Reservation` entry when someone has reserved a name before forming an entity. These records have no officers, no formation date, and no legal form. Querying a Name Reservation ID returns a 404.
Officers reflect the most recent annual list	Nevada requires an annual list of officers (due each anniversary month). The officers shown are from the last filed annual or amended list, which may be up to a year old. Entities in `Default` status have missed at least one annual list.
No shareholders or UBO register	Nevada does not publish ownership or beneficial ownership data for any entity type.
No activity codes	Industry classification (NAICS, SIC) is not collected by the Nevada business register.
Sole proprietors are county-level	Sole proprietors and doing-business-as filings are registered at county level and are not indexed by the state register.
Compliance Hold flag	Entities with a Compliance Hold have an outstanding obligation (typically a business licence fee) with the state. The API surfaces this in the company status.

Mappings

Legal Forms

Legal form is sourced from the Entity Type field on the SilverFlume entity page. The vocabulary is a closed set derived from the Nevada Revised Statutes (Chapters 78, 82, 86, 87, 87A, 88, 88A, 89, and 116). Each form is paired with a Topograph standardized category and, where a matching code exists, a GLEIF ISO 20275 ELF code for the US-NV jurisdiction. The full 31-value table with ISO 20275 codes is available on the pricing page. A representative sample:

Key Nevada entity types (sample)

SilverFlume Entity Type	Standardized	ISO 20275
