Collection agencies that collect from Nevada residents generally need a Financial Institutions Division collection-agency license. Foreign (out-of-state) collection agencies may have a distinct registration category — use the FID checklist.
File on NMLS with FID. Mortgage licenses from the Division of Mortgage Lending do not authorize collection work.
State licensing does not replace the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, CFPB Regulation F, or the TCPA. Those rules apply whether or not a state issues a license.
