The Maine Office of Professional and Occupational Regulation makes it easier to get licensed. If you hold an equivalent out-of-state licence you may qualify for a Maine licence, or for a temporary licence while you finish the requirements. Veterans can get credit toward a licence for military training and experience. Veterans and surviving spouses have their applications processed ahead of others.
Apply to the Office of Professional and Occupational Regulation for your profession, and submit the temporary licence application and affidavit if you do not yet meet full requirements. For questions call 207-624-8603.
Your out-of-state licence or documentation of your military training and experience, your DD214 or proof of current service, and your marriage certificate or casualty documentation if you are applying as a spouse or surviving spouse.
