Verify Your License
This process is for Contractors, who are currently licensed in Louisiana, who are applying for licensure in Other States based on Reciprocity or Examination Endorsement Agreements.
The other states’ licensing boards may require a Verification of Licensure from the state in which you are currently licensed. Please note: Depending on the state, the “Verification of Licensure” may instead be called one of the following: License Verification, Letter of Good Standing or Examination Waiver Application.
How to obtain a Verification of Licensure from LSLBC:
- Complete and submit the LSLBC Verification of License Request form, found HERE.
- Email completed the form and payment information to [email protected].
- Allow 7-14 business days for processing time.
*You do not need to send us the reciprocal state’s blank verification of license form.
How will you receive the Verification of Licensure from LSLBC:
Once the Verification of License Request form and the payment has been processed by staff:
- LSLBC will complete our own Verification of License letter, which is accepted by the other reciprocal states.
- LSLBC will email and mail the Verification of License letter to the Licensee, unless otherwise instructed.
- By email, it will be sent to the email address provided on the form.
- By mail, it will be mailed to the mailing address currently on file with LSLBC.
For more information regarding Verification of License requests, contact us at [email protected] or at (225) 765-2301.
Regarding the Reciprocal State’s Contractors Board
(the other state where you’re applying for a contractor’s license)
- Contact the reciprocal state Board or review their website for their Laws and Rules regarding reciprocal credit for examinations.
- The contractor must complete and submit their required application or forms for licensure and meet all licensing requirements for that state.
