DECLARATION OF VALUE
A State of Nevada Declaration of Value must accompany all deeds presented for recording.

The Declaration of Value is provided by the Nevada Tax Commission and may not be materially altered or added to. If a deed is presented with an incomplete Declaration of Value, the recorder may refuse the items for recording. This document can be found on the Pershing County website.
