Use the Licensee Lookup System ⟶Licensee Lookup
The Licensee Lookup System is the primary source for verifying license credentials of professionals in Montana.
The Montana Department of Labor & Industry, Employment Standards Division, provides Licensee Lookup as a public service. We rely on licensees to provide accurate information as required by state law. Providing false information is considered unprofessional conduct.
Disclaimer:** The Department does not guarantee the accuracy of information on the Licensee Lookup System. You are responsible for verifying the information. For questions, contact the specific licensing program or board.
Important Note:** Some disciplinary actions may not be immediately posted. Appeals and administrative processes can delay updates. For information before July 1, 1996, contact the specific licensing program.
You can download a list of licensees by their license type from the Montana Department of Labor and Industry's Licensee Lookup System.
Important Note: Please be aware that phone numbers are not included in the downloadable list.
We previously called this section "Professional Licensees List." We renamed it to "Licensee Lookup System" to make it easier to understand.
