Illuminated Signs & LED Neon Signs in Las Vegas

First check which jurisdiction your address is in: Downtown, the Arts District and Fremont Street are in the City of Las Vegas, while the Las Vegas Strip and much of the valley are in unincorporated Clark County, which has its own building department. For the City of Las Vegas, according to the Department of Building & Safety:

• Sign permit application: the city has a dedicated sign permit application that asks for the sign type (wall or roof, monument, pole), the size in square feet, the materials and whether the sign is new, a replacement or a relocation.
• Electrical: if the sign needs a new electrical power supply, a separate permit for the electrical work is required.
• Contractor: the application asks for a Nevada State Contractors License number and a City of Las Vegas business license number; only a Nevada licensed contractor may obtain a building permit for commercial construction.
• Other jurisdictions: Henderson and North Las Vegas are separate cities with their own permit offices.

Shopping centers and resort properties usually have their own sign criteria as well – ask your landlord or property manager before you order.

Is the Las Vegas Strip in the City of Las Vegas?
No. The Strip is in unincorporated Clark County, so sign permits there go through Clark County rather than the City of Las Vegas. Downtown, Fremont Street and the Arts District are in the city.

Who can apply for a sign permit in the City of Las Vegas?
The city's sign permit application asks for a Nevada State Contractors License number, and only a Nevada licensed contractor may obtain a building permit for commercial construction – so your sign installer normally applies.

Do you install signs in Las Vegas?

Yes. Send us a photo of your storefront and we will show you a free design preview with your sign in place.
