Legal Guidance on One of Nevada’s Largest Industries - Reno & Las Vegas

Gaming is a vital industry in Nevada. The industry is the state’s biggest employer, and its magnetic pull as a function of tourism supports countless other critical industries, including hospitality and food and beverage. Gaming regularly contributes over $10 billion in total revenue, with successful facilities throughout Reno, Las Vegas, and the broader Nevada area.

It can be tempting to enter Nevada’s gaming business, even as trends transform how the industry operates and diversifies its revenue streams. Doing so requires navigating the state’s strict regulations, including the obtaining of the appropriate licenses for your business. It is also important to pursue a sound strategy in an inarguably crowded marketplace that will be consistent with your goals and set you up for success.

Understanding Nevada Gaming Licenses

To operate a gaming establishment or otherwise participate in the supply or distribution of the gaming industry, you will need a license from the Nevada Gaming Commission. The type of license required will depend on the nature and scale of your business.

When considering whether to enter the gaming industry, you and your business partners will need to decide to what extent the role of gaming will play in your enterprise. Very few businesses exclusively deal in gaming. Even major casinos offer food and beverage, hospitality, or entertainment components to supplement their business and diversify income streams.

The key question to ask is whether gaming will be the primary element of your business. The answer to this question generally determines what type of license you will need. If you plan to build a casino with a litany of machines and table games, gaming is probably your company’s primary focus, especially if it is central to your advertising. Should you intend to run another type of business with gaming only involved as a supplementary feature, gaming could be interpreted as not the primary piece of your company.
