Securing Special Nevada Business Privilege Licenses
Businesses looking to operate in the State of Nevada are generally required to obtain a business license on the state level from the Nevada Secretary of State’s Office. Most counties and cities in Nevada also require commercial enterprises to secure licenses at the city/county level. Additionally, depending upon the location of the business and the nature of its operations, the business may need to secure a special business license known as a “privilege license.”
We have extensive experience representing clients that are required to secure special business privilege licenses, including retail establishments selling alcoholic beverages. The application process for these types of licenses can be quite complicated and generally involves multiple steps. Applicants must provide detailed information and documents and submit to a background investigation. The applicant may also be required to appear at a hearing to answer questions about the business and its proposed activities before the privilege license will be granted.
Privilege licenses encompass businesses that sell alcoholic beverages, wedding chapels, pawnbrokers, gaming establishments, and many other types of businesses. In order to secure a privilege license, these businesses must submit a detailed application and undergo a background investigation conducted by the local agencies and police. In some cases, the privilege license will only be granted upon special approval of the local elected official and land use boards.
