APPLYING FOR A FUNERAL DIRECTOR LICENSE BY RECIPROCITY
These instructions apply to applicants filing for a funeral director license by reciprocity. If an applicant does not hold a current license in another state or if the applicant has not worked as a licensed funeral director in three of the past five years, he or she must serve a resident internship. See the instructions for applying for a resident internship.
Requirements
Please submit:
-
Completed, signed and notarized application form (please answer all the questions).
-
Non-refundable pro-rated processing fee, by check or money order, made payable to "State of Delaware."
-
Letter of good standing from each state in which the applicant is now or has ever been licensed as a funeral service practitioner sent directly from each state to the Board office.
If the state issues separate licenses for funeral directors and embalmers, letters of good standing for both licenses are required.
Law, Rules And Regulations Examination
In addition to the requirements above, each applicant must pass an examination on Delaware's law, rules and regulations with a minimum score of 70%. When an applicant is approved to take the Law, Rules and Regulations examination, the Board office will notify the applicant. The applicant must then contact the Board office at (302) 744-4500 or customerservice.dpr@state.de.us to schedule the exam. The examination fee is $95, by check or money order, made payable to the "State of Delaware." Please do not send this fee until notified to do so by the Board office. If the applicant requests re-scheduling of the examination after it has been shipped, a fee of $15 will be assessed to cover the shipping costs.
The testing service will send the results to the Board office, and the Board office will notify the applicant in writing.
Notification Of Licensure
If the applicant passes the Law, Rules and Regulations examination, the Board office will issue the license.
