must issue you a license to work in Delaware.

Question:
Do you have reciprocity?
Answer:
Yes. Reciprocity will be provided for licensed plumbers of other states provided that the standards for licensure in that state are equivalent to Delaware.
Question: How long does
the licensure process take?
Answer: When all required documentation has been
received and the application is complete, it is presented
to the Board for approval. Allow 4-8 weeks to receive
your license.
Question:
How much does it cost?
Answer:
See Fee Schedule for processing fee due with application.
Check or money order should be made payable to the "State of
Delaware".
Question:
Do I need to have a U.S. Social Security Number in order to obtain a professional license, permit or registration?
Answer:
If you have been issued a U.S. Social Security Number (SSN), you are required to record it on your application for a license, permit or registration. The professional license, permit or registration will not be issued until the SSN is provided.
If you have never been issued a U.S. Social Security Number (SSN), you are required to submit a notarized affidavit, under penalty of perjury, that you do not have a U.S. SSN. The professional license, permit or registration will not be issued until the required affidavit is provided. The required affidavit form is Request for Exemption from Social Security Number Requirement. If you are later issued a U.S. SSN, you should report it to the Board office. |
