Additional Notes

Nevada has the highest telemarketer registration fee in the country at $6,000, plus a $50,000 bond under NRS Chapter 599B. However, enforcement has been minimal since Nevada dismantled its consumer protection division during the 2008 recession. The state has officially indicated it is not actively enforcing the statute. Despite this, the law is on the books and could be enforced at any time. Out-of-state registrants must appoint the Secretary of State as agent for service of process.

Nevada does not require separate individual salesperson registration. Only the telephone solicitation business must register under NRS Chapter 599B.

Apply Before Your First Call

Operating as an unregistered telemarketer in Nevada is a separate violation from consent or calling-hours violations. You can be penalized $10,000 per call even if every other aspect of your operation is compliant.
