If you are concerned about the status of your license, please login to your account to review your expiration date. Please allow for a 72 hour business response time.
Please note:
The status of your license does not indicate your employment status or use of the license.
As of June 15th 2023, there are two statuses for licenses: "renewed" (active) or "not renewed" (inactive). Licenses that show an expired status are no longer renewable.
Please note that KBC does not have the option to place a license account in either a "retired" or "escrow" status.
If you have previously emailed us directly to KBC@ky.gov please do not send a duplicate message through contact us as it will delay communications to all inquires.
