Corporation Reinstatement, Revival, and Revivor Packet - Nevada
NEVADA CORPORATION REINSTATEMENT, REVIVAL, AND REVIVOR PACKET
Route gate. NRS 78.180(4) bars reinstatement of a domestic corporation whose charter has remained revoked for five consecutive years. NRS 78.730 separately provides a renewal or revival certificate procedure. Assess that procedure, including its express cross-reference to § 78.180, before concluding whether an older charter can be revived.

2. REINSTATEMENT CURE GATE
For a timely reinstatement, Section 78.180 requires the annual list, applicable statements and ownership information, all delinquent fees and penalties, and the $300 reinstatement fee. The Secretary of State may not reinstate unless the charter revocation occurred only because required fees and penalties were unpaid.
☐ Revocation cause and unexpired five-year reinstatement window confirmed. If the window has closed, assess the separate § 78.730 revival route before preparing a filing.
☐ Every annual list, required statement, business-license item, fee, and penalty cured.
☐ Required authorization declaration completed.
☐ Former-name availability or the § 78.185 new-name route confirmed.
Revival route review
For a proposed revival, NRS 78.730 calls for a certificate containing the corporation name, required ownership information, revival effective date and duration, and the statutory continuation statement; a current officer and director list; and an authorization declaration. If stock has been issued, the designated signer and filing require written consent from stockholders holding at least a majority of voting power. Confirm the applicable § 78.180 cross-reference, outstanding fees, and the current Secretary of State form and fee before filing.
☐ Revival eligibility and approvals documented separately from reinstatement.

4. EFFECT AND POST-FILING REVIEW

☐ Taxes, licenses, insurance, banking, contracts, litigation, property, and foreign qualifications reviewed separately.

Corporate documents govern how a company makes decisions, records them, and handles disputes between owners, directors, and officers. Proper corporate paperwork is what lets a business take advantage of limited liability, pass clean audits, and survive an acquisition or investor review. Skipping formalities like written resolutions and signed consents is one of the fastest ways for a business owner to lose personal asset protection.
