The easiest license renewals begin long before the renewal period opens. Taking a few minutes now to prepare can help you avoid delays and make renewing your license a quick, straightforward process.
The 2027 license renewal period opens Monday, Nov. 2, 2026, and the easiest renewals are always completed by licensees who prepare in advance.
Before renewal season begins, take a few minutes to make sure everything is in order.
Your Renewal Checklist
☐ Log in to your online account. Verify that you can access it at myfloridalicense.com. Resolving login issues now is much easier than waiting until the renewal period opens.
☐ Review your contact information. Verify that your email address, mailing address, and telephone number are up to date, so you don’t miss important renewal notifications. (Not to mention that you are required to by Florida statute.)
☐ Complete your continuing education. Don’t wait until the last minute. Finishing early gives you time to confirm your Florida Laws & Rules course has been reported and to resolve any questions before you submit your renewal.
☐ Review your license information. Make sure your name, employer information (if applicable), and other details are accurate. Update any changes before the renewal period begins.
☐ Mark your calendar. Online renewal opens November 2, 2026. Being prepared means you’ll be able to renew quickly and get back to what you do best.
A little preparation now can make renewal simple and stress-free. We encourage all licensees to check these items off their list before November so they can enjoy a smooth renewal experience.
Taking these simple steps now will help ensure your renewal is fast and hassle-free when the renewal period opens in November. A little preparation today can save you valuable time later.
