Renewal Cycle Opens July 1st, 2026!

The annual renewal of licenses and certificates occurs during the regular renewal period of July 1st through September 30th. Please log into the LBVM License Portal to check the expiration date of your license or certificate. If your expiration date is September 30th, 2026, then you must complete the ’26-’27 renewal process starting July 1st. All license and certificate renewals – which includes the submission of CE activity and payment of all fees – must be completed through the LBVM License Portal. Please visit our Renewal Info page at www.lsbvm.org/renewal and carefully read through the renewal instructions. Paper copies of renewal form are not available and cannot be mailed any longer.

RENEWAL PAYMENTS
* If fees are paid via credit card, it may take 3-5 business days for your payment to be reflected in your bank account.
* Check payments must be received on/before the Sept. 30th renewal deadline; otherwise, your license/certificate will be expired starting Oct. 1st — No exceptions. Your renewal will not be considered complete until payment of all fees has been received by the Board. If a check payment is postmarked on/after Oct. 1st, an additional late renewal fee (for DVMs – $150; for RVTs – $20; for CAETs – $25) will be assessed in a separate invoice which must be paid before your renewal will be considered complete. Your license/certificate will remain in an expired status until the late renewal fee is paid in full.
