How to start

Steps to a legal first sale in Nevada.

  1. Confirm your products qualify

    Verify your menu fits Nevada's cottage food rules. Most states restrict temperature-controlled, meat, seafood, and low-acid canned items; check the prohibited-foods list above.

  2. Register with your state agency

    Nevada requires cottage food operators to register before selling. Registration is free. Expect about 30 days for processing.

  3. Label every product correctly

    Every label must include your name (or registered ID), product name, ingredients, and allergens per Nevada rules.
