Las Vegas rules that apply to every show

Fire permits

Clark County requires a fire permit for indoor trade shows with an occupant load of 300 or more. Larger shows submit a floor plan showing booths, aisles and exits, so keep your booth inside its approved footprint and your aisles clear.

ConfirmedClark County Fire Department: indoor trade shows permit guideChecked Oct 30, 2026

Selling on the floor

If you sell goods at a show, you collect Nevada sales tax and hand a one-time return to the promoter before you leave. Sell at more than two Nevada events in 12 months and you need your own sales tax permit.
