Wyoming Licensure Information and Requirements
For the latest up-to-date information on licensure requirements and fees, visit the Wyoming Board of Nursing website or contact the Wyoming Board of Nursing licensing division at (307) 7761-7601.
Licensure Requirements
If you have a multi-state nursing license, you’re in luck. Wyoming is a compact state, and you will not need to apply for a Wyoming nursing license if you already have a multi-state nursing license.
If you don’t hold a nursing license from a compact state, don’t worry. You can still apply for a Wyoming nursing license by endorsement.
To receive a Wyoming nursing license by endorsement, you’ll need to:
- Create an account on the Wyoming Board of Nursing website. Select the Nurse Portal link on our website and create an account. Once you have created an account, you may select the “apply for licensure” box in the upper right-hand corner and select the appropriate application by endorsement. Read all of the instructions carefully before completing the application.
- Pay all necessary fees including licensure fee ($135), criminal background check fee ($60), and processing fee ($5).
We only accept credit/debit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or a debit card. If you do not have a credit card or debit card, you can purchase a Visa, MasterCard, or Discover gift card at many banks or credit unions or at discount stores such as Walmart to pay for the online application.
- Pass a criminal background check. All individuals seeking a nursing license in the state of Wyoming must submit, along with the other requirements for licensure, fingerprint cards. These are used to obtain a Criminal Background Check (CBC) from the Department of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI).
- Submit verification of your current nursing license. The Wyoming Board of Nursing permits licensure verification through NursysⓇ. If your original state of licensure does not participate in NursysⓇ, you will need to complete the LPN-RN Verification Form and forward the form to your original.
- Submit your official transcripts with the degree posted and the date awarded to WSBN from the school, either electronically (wsbn-info-licensing@wyo.gov) or through the mail.
Please allow up to forty-five (45) business days to complete the process. Once we have received all required documents (i.e. verification, transcripts, etc.) and the CBC, we will issue your license.
A temporary permit (good for 90 days) may be requested on an application. Once we have received a complete application (i.e. transcripts, license verification, fingerprint cards, etc.) a temporary permit is usually issued within 1-3 business days.
Licensure Fees
Application fees for licensure by endorsement include:
- Licensure fee: $135
- Background check: $60
- Processing fee: $5
- Temporary permit: $25
