Search for your license using the details in your renewal notice (emailed to you 90 days before your expiration date).

A receipt will be sent to the email address on file up to 2 business days after the payment is made.
A copy of your license will be emailed to the email address on file 1-3 business days after approval.
DOPL will send a renewal notice to the email address on file 90 days prior to the expiration date. Utah Code 58-1-301.7 requires you to notify DOPL of any change to your address or email address within 10 business days. You can update your information at any time by visiting My License One.
Continuing to practice a profession after a license has expired is considered unlawful conduct and a criminal offense, per Utah Code 58-1-501(1)(a) and 58-1-502. DOPL may take disciplinary action for any period of time worked without a license, or for failing to meet renewal requirements, even after the license has been renewed or reinstated.
