License Renewal
All active licenses and certificates expired December 31, 2020 and moved to "lapsed" status on February 1, 2021 if not renewed.
If your license or certificate recently lapsed, please contact Board staff at 602-542-8166 or [email protected] to request a "reinstatement" application.
We suggest that you verify that any Continuing Education you intend to take to earn credit toward license/certificate renewal is "Board-approved" per the Administrative Rules. Click on the Continuing Education page for more information. At all times (not just during COVID-19 related issues) ALL CE may be obtained online as long as it is interactive and is offered by one of the approved sources (i.e. RACE, AzVMA, SAVMA, AAHA, AAVSB, a veterinary college, a veterinary technician program (for CVTs only) or specifically approved by the Arizona Veterinary Medical Examining Board).
(NOTE! A law which became effective 4/26/18 requires a veterinarian who is authorized to dispense controlled substances AND who has a valid U.S. DEA registration number to complete a minimum of 3 hours of opioid-related, substance use disorder-related or addiction-related CE for each license renewal cycle.
If you would like a copy of your wall license or certificate similar to the one you received when you were originally licensed or certified, please see the Licensing tab for the Duplicate Wall License or Certificate Request forms. Note: there is a fee for these wall license replacements.
If you need a copy of your renewal license which expires 12/31/2022, please email [email protected] to request that a copy be emailed to you. As well, you can make a request through the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of the website homepage.
