DPOR Online License Services

Due to planned server maintenance, DPOR’s License Lookup Tool and Online Services will be unavailable Friday, July 18, from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. We apologize for the temporary inconvenience.

We have upgraded our online services to include new license (initial) applications, renewals of existing licenses, reinstatement of expired licenses, upgrades to licenses, address changes, and other maintenance of a license. However, not all services are available online. Each board and license has specific types of services available. Before registering, refer to the list of online services available by profession below for a complete list of online services.

Payments through online services must be made by Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express.

Please note, Merit provides credentials in digital format only, and these digital credentials are not downloadable or printable. Accepting your digital credential from Merit is optional. You will still receive regular mail from DPOR as usual, including your paper license upon renewal.
