Renew My License

2024-2026 Fire Sprinkler Contractor License renewals are now open. Prior to accessing the online renewal system, you must have a current Certificate of Liability Insurance and current NICET certifications for all qualifying parties on file with the Board. Please submit this information via the Document Submission portal. Once this information has been accepted, you will be able to complete the online renewal process. Please allow board staff 5-7 business days to update this information in our system. If all documents and fees are not received or postmarked by July 31, 2024, your license will lapse. Documents are processed in the order received.

Accessing the Online Renewal Software

To access the online renewal software or Document Submission, you must have a valid email on file with the Board. If you do not currently have an email address on file with the Board or you need to change your email address, please email the Board at contact.CLB@llr.sc.gov with your license name, license number, last 5 digits of your FEIN number and your current email address.

  • If you need to reset/recover your password, please click here and a link to reset your password will be emailed to you.

All licenses must be renewed separately by license credential number; however, the online renewal application process features a proxy payment link. This will enable the licensee to email a link to a third party for payment. For privacy and security purposes, the third party will only have access to information such as name, license type and number and payment amount. The licensee is responsible for following up with the proxy to ensure payment is made timely for their renewal.
