North Dakota Expedited and Temporary Professional Licenses for Service Members and Military Spouses

North Dakota professional and occupational licensing boards
Application completed within 30 days, and a free temporary license valid for two years

Your professional license application is processed faster if you are a service member stationed in North Dakota or the spouse of one. If you already hold a valid license from another jurisdiction and substantially meet North Dakota’s requirements, the board has to finish your application within 30 days of receiving it. If it cannot issue a full license, it issues a temporary one, good for two years while you work toward full licensure, and it cannot charge you a fee for the temporary license.
