No. Nevada DMV does not accept California or any out-of-state emission certificates as proof of Nevada compliance. You must obtain a Nevada emissions test within 90 days of registering your vehicle, or submit a notarized EC-008 Emission Control Exemption Application to claim temporary exemption while you arrange Nevada testing.

This is the single most common question from California transplants moving to Henderson, Summerlin, or Las Vegas. California's smog check program tests different parameters than Nevada's BAR-97 emission testing system. Even if your vehicle passed California emissions last week, Nevada DMV requires independent Nevada certification before processing your registration.

📋 How EC-008 Solves the Out-of-State Problem:

• Initial registration exemption: File notarized EC-008 affidavit with your registration packet to claim temporary exemption
• 90-day compliance window: Nevada gives you 90 days to complete emissions testing after initial registration
• Avoid registration delays: EC-008 allows DMV to process your registration immediately instead of waiting for Nevada smog
• One-time use only: At your first Nevada renewal, you must have a valid Nevada emission certificate

⚠️ Critical Notarization Requirement: EC-008 is a jurat affidavit requiring Nevada notary signature with physical seal. Digital signatures and self-signed forms are rejected by DMV. Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides same-day EC-008 notarization throughout Henderson and all Clark County areas, meeting California residents at their new homes to complete registration paperwork without DMV trips.

💰 Cost Comparison: Nevada emission test: $18-25. EC-008 mobile notarization: $45. Late registration penalty if you delay while searching for notary: $6 per month. Most California transplants use EC-008 to register immediately, then schedule Nevada emissions testing at their convenience within the 90-day window.
