Nevada carves 13 activities out by statute. On their own, none of them requires a foreign LLC to register.

• Maintaining, defending, or settling any lawsuit or legal proceeding
• Holding meetings of managers or members, or carrying on internal company affairs
• Maintaining accounts at banks or credit unions
• Maintaining an office or agency to transfer, exchange, or register the company's own securities, or keeping trustees or depositaries for them
• Making sales through independent contractors
• Soliciting or receiving orders outside Nevada through letters, catalogs, or other advertising, accepting them outside Nevada, and shipping the goods in
• Creating or acquiring debt, mortgages, or security interests in real or personal property
• Securing or collecting debts, or enforcing mortgages and security interests on the property backing them
• Owning real or personal property, and nothing more
• One-off transactions completed within 30 days that are not part of a series of similar transactions
• Producing motion pictures
• Operating as an out-of-state depository institution under Nevada's banking laws
• Transacting business in interstate commerce

Under NRS 86.5483, all 13 items. Nevada's order-solicitation item is narrower than most: the orders must be solicited AND accepted outside Nevada and then filled by shipping in. Unique items cover motion picture production and out-of-state depository institutions. Subsection 3 withdraws the exemption entirely if the company maintains an office in Nevada. There is NO tax disclaimer; subsection 4 instead preserves personal jurisdiction and bars the company from offering its non-transacting status as a defense in other proceedings.
