Reciprocal General Contractor Licensing in Kentucky
The Commonwealth of Kentucky does not hold reciprocal licensing agreements for General Contractors licensed in other states. This is because licensing is handled at the local-level, rather than the state-level in Kentucky.
Out-of-state contractors who want to work on construction projects in Kentucky must check with the local city, county or municipality to determine what is required. In most cases, contractors are required to obtain a license or registration from the city.
*General Contractors should always notify the local licensing board if they hold a license in another state.
