License Exam Preparation

General Info
All persons who wish to be licensed as a contractor shall make an application to the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors.
Reciprocity

The Board has reciprocity agreements with the Alabama Licensing Board for General Contractors, the Arkansas Contractors Licensing Board, the Mississippi Board of Contractors, the North Carolina Board of Examiners of Electrical Contractors, the Tennessee Board for Licensing General Contractors, and the Utah Construction Trades Bureau Division of Occupational & Professional Licensing.

PLEASE NOTE: Your firm must be domiciled in one of the approved states and hold a license in the domiciliary state for a minimum of three years with no record of disciplinary action.  If your firm meets these requirements, the Board will consider waiver of the sixty-day waiting period for out-of-state contractors and may consider waiver of trade examinations.  There is no waiver of the Business and Law examination.  Reciprocity is not automatic. You must submit a written request for consideration.
