Good to know: Nevada licenses massage therapists at the state level via the Nevada State Board of Massage Therapy (statutory authority NRS/NAC Chapter 640C). Renewal is practically annual: licenses expire on the last day of the anniversary month each year, requiring 12 CEH plus the $295 renewal fee. Renewal is completed online (CE proof, photo, and payment submitted electronically); a paper renewal can be requested by phone for an added $30 processing fee. Late renewal incurs $25 per month in late fees, not to exceed $500; a license expired more than 2 years requires reapplication as a new applicant. Note a documentation nuance: NRS 640C.580 frames the license as valid for 2 years and NAC 640C.100 states 24 CE hours per licensing period, but the Board's renewal process operates on an annual cycle (12 CEH/year, $295/year). Renewal fee amount ($295) and late fee come from Board FAQ content; the renewal-cycle/expiration and CE per year are consistent across official massagetherapy.nv.gov pages. Official .gov licensee pages are JavaScript-rendered and could not be fetched directly; facts were corroborated via search snippets reading those official pages plus the leg.state.nv.us NAC/NRS text.
