Next renewal date
January 31, 2027Nevada CPA-firm offices maintain a continuous registration under NRS 628.335, with no separate 'registration expires on X date' provision -- the annual report-filing and fee requirement (NAC 628.180/628.190: due January 31 each year) IS the entire renewal mechanism for firms, confirmed by a full review of NRS 628.335/340/343/345 and NAC 628.180/190/210/250, none of which state a distinct firm-registration expiration date (unlike individual permits, which do expire annually on December 31 per NRS 628.380). (NRS 628.335, the statute establishing continuous firm registration, was itself amended in 2023 (A 2023, 301) -- confirmed via direct fetch that the amendment did not add an expiration-date provision; the annual January 31 filing under NAC 628.180/628.190 remains the sole renewal mechanism for firms.)

Frequently asked questions

How does Nevada's CPA license renewal cycle work?

Annual. The permit to practice expires December 31 of each year (NRS 628.380(2)); renewal fees may be paid without a late penalty through January 31 of the following year, but the permit itself expires December 31.

How much does it cost to renew a CPA license in Nevada?

$175. Flat $175 annual renewal fee (individual, online or by mail), per the Nevada State Board of Accountancy's own renewal page. A $150 late fee applies after the January 31 deadline. Firm registrations renew on the same January 31 deadline (NAC 628.190) but the Board has not published a current dollar figure for the firm fee on any page we could locate.

Does Nevada require CPE hours to renew a CPA license?

Yes -- Nevada requires 40 hours of CPE every 1 year. That includes 2 ethics hours. See the full Nevada CPE requirements page for the exact citation.

What does it cost to reinstate a lapsed Nevada CPA license?

No single flat fee covers the plain 'missed the deadline, renewed late' scenario. A simple late renewal (before lapsing further) costs a $150 late fee (capped at $200 by NAC 628.016(3)(d)) on top of the $175 standard annual fee. A separate $250 fee (NAC 628.016/628.110(4)) applies specifically to reinstatement from retired/inactive status, not ordinary late renewal.

Does a CPA firm need to register separately in Nevada?

Yes -- Nevada has its own firm-level registration or permit requirement, separate from an individual CPA's license renewal. See the full Nevada firm renewal page for the exact cycle and citation.
