About each permit
Auto Body Shop License
Nevada genuinely licenses auto body and collision repair shops through the DMV's occupational and business licensing arm, alongside dealers and wreckers from the same office — this is not a state where repair work goes unlicensed. Three hundred dollars for the license itself, $39 for fingerprint processing on every principal named on the application, and a $10,000 surety bond or cash deposit in lieu of one before the shop can open. The license renews every year.
