The Details
What you need
The board offers certified license verification documents to current and former licensed brokers and salespersons in Massachusetts. The certified verification document provides the following public information on each licensee:
- Name
- License type
- License number
- Date the license was issued
- License status
- Date the license expires
- Any relevant disciplinary action information
The board will provide only this public information to requestors. The same information is also available for free through the Division of Occupational Licensure’s public Check a License database.
Please note that the board does not complete licensing verification forms from licensing authorities in other states or jurisdictions.
Fees
The fee can be paid online at the end of the request submission process. You can pay by credit card, debit card, or bank account. Please note that a convenience fee may be charged for all online credit card transactions. There is no fee for online payment by check.
