IMPORTANT: LICENSE RENEWAL NOTICES IN 2026 TO BE EMAIL ONLY
Beginning in 2026, the Mississippi State Board of Contractors will send annual license renewal notices by email only as part of our effort to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
To ensure you receive your renewal notice, please make sure MSBOC has your current and valid email address, and check your inbox (including spam or junk folders) regularly.
Please remember that renewal notices are sent as a courtesy—it is each license holder’s responsibility to renew on time and keep contact information up to date.
For questions or to update your contact information please call (800) 880-6161.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please make sure you conduct business (sign all bids, contracts, permits, etc.) in the name reflected on your certificate of licensure. Conducting business under any other name is equivalent to unlicensed contracting and could subject you to penalties and/or the inability to enforce a lien or contract. For more information contact MSBOC at 800-880-6161.
