License Reciprocity Lookup

Check whether the state you’re moving to honors your current license — and what to do if it doesn’t.

It's often one-way

State A honoring State B does not mean B honors A. Always check the direction you're actually moving.

It's tier-specific

Reciprocity frequently applies to journeyman but not master, or to one license class only. The exact tier matters.

"Endorsement" ≠ free pass

Even with reciprocity you'll usually file an application, pay a fee, and sometimes still sit a state-specific exam.
