Nevada Pet Food Regulations
Commercial feed licensing, AAFCO compliance, and labeling requirements for pet treat businesses
Overview
Nevada lacks a dedicated commercial feed STATUTE — AAFCO classifies NV (with Alaska) as not having an established commercial feed law, so pet treats are generally not subject to a state feed-law license; products must still meet federal FDA/CVM labeling. IMPORTANT: the Nevada Dept of Agriculture nonetheless runs a Commercial Feed Licensing program (agri.nv.gov/CommercialFeed) — confirm your specific product's status with them before selling unlicensed rather than assuming a blanket exemption.
