    How to Request Inactive Status Online

    Your New York State license is good for life, however, you MUST register with us periodically if you wish to practice your profession in New York State. Upon licensure, you received a registration certificate valid for a period of three years (two years for physicians). We will mail you an application to renew your registration to practice approximately four months before your registration expires. It is your responsibility to notify this office of any change of address.

    If you are not practicing your profession or using your title in New York, you may place your registration in inactive status free of charge. To do so, you must advise us of your decision to register inactive. You can do this online following the steps below or by answering "no" to question 1 on your paper renewal registration form, signing and returning the form with no fee. If you do not inform us of such a decision, you are subject to the customary registration fee for your profession. In the event that you decide to resume practice after an inactive period, you must reregister your license and meet any post-licensure requirements imposed on your profession.

    If you wish to inactivate your registration online for the next registration period, you must be able to answer "YES" to the following statements:

    1. There are no more than five (5) months left in my current registration period OR my last valid registration period ended less than four (4) months ago, and
    2. I have my seven (7) character PIN which appears on the registration renewal document sent to me recently.

    Please Note! If you are requesting inactive status online:

    • If the application cannot be processed for any reason, we will notify you.
    • There is no charge to change your registration status to "inactive" for the new period.
    • Your registration will not show as 'inactive' until the beginning of the new registration period. Please disregard any additional renewal notices you may receive for this registration period after you have inactivated online.
      • The Office of the Professions Online License Verification service will show your current registration as "registered" until the current registration period ends, then be converted to "inactive" at the beginning of the new period.

      If you wish to reactivate a registration that is inactive or has lapsed, you will need to submit a Delayed Registration Application.

        Questions & Answers Regarding Online Registration Renewal

        General Questions and Answers:

        1. What is OP Online Registration Renewal and who can use it?

        Yes! Our Website is secured by Verisign's SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption technology for all personal data input. Encryption is a way of coding the information in a file so that if it is intercepted by a third party as it travels over the Internet, it cannot be read. Only we can read your encrypted information.

        The application will time out after 30 minutes of inactivity.

        There is a transitional registration period for your second registration after licensure or after reactivation of your registration. This period will end with the month prior your date of birth between 2 and 3 years from the date of your first registration (1 and 2 years for Medicine, Physician Assistants, Specialist Assistants and Medical Physics).

        This allows the Department to adjust your triennial registration cycle to coincide with the month of your date of birth and helps to ensure speedy renewal of your registration. The registration fee for this transitional period is pro-rated so that you only pay for the number of months included in the period. Continuing Education Requirements are also pro-rated.
