Some of the benefits of relocating to Nevada

• No corporate or personal income tax in Nevada. A significant advantage of doing business in Nevada is the absence of corporate and personal income tax. While other taxes may apply depending on how the company is conducting business in other states, this unique aspect of Nevada’s tax law can yield considerable savings and improve profitability for businesses.
• Tax abatements. Nevada offers various tax abatements for qualifying businesses, including abatements on sales and use tax, business tax, and personal property tax. These can significantly lower your tax burden and enhance your business’s profitability.
• Established infrastructure. Strong infrastructure, including transportation, telecommunications and an educated workforce, supports competitiveness, resilience and connectivity.
• Workforce development grants. Designed to help businesses recruit and train their workforce, these grants cover part of the cost of training employees, making it easier for businesses to develop a skilled workforce. For example, the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance has partnered with the University of Nevada Las Vegas to match qualified graduates with businesses moving to the state.
• Industrial development bonds (IDBs). The state issues these tax-exempt securities to finance the construction or improvement of facilities.
