Reciprocity
License Certification Request
 
 
If I am licensed in another state, how do I transfer that license to Alabama?
You must show proof of licensure in your current state and pay a fee of $ 100. If you have been licensed for at least five years or have passed a board approved practical and written exam, no exams are required. If you have been licensed less than five years or have not passed a board approved exam, you may be required to pass both a practical and written exam.

How do I transfer my license from Alabama to another state?
You must make a written request for the board to send a letter of certification to the state to which you are moving. Many states accept on-line verification, but you must confirm that with the new state. There is no fee for this service.

Requirements for reciprocity from another country:
• All information regarding education, such as school transcripts and diplomas.
• Transcript of professional training hours from cosmetology school.
• Copy of current license and how long license has been held.
• Whether or not you have owned a beauty business in your home country.
• Note: All information must be in English and translated by a certified translator.
