010-62 Wyo. Code R. §§ 62-5 - Reciprocal Licensing

(a) Non-resident applicators may apply for a reciprocal license if the other state accepts Wyoming licenses for reciprocity.

(b) To be eligible for a reciprocal license, the applicant must have been issued a license based on an examination in the reciprocating state.

(c) The Department will compare the applicator categories on the license from the issuing state with the relevant categories set forth in the Chapter 28. If the Department determines that the issuing state's category is not eligible for reciprocity and that category is required for applications that the reciprocal license applicant plans to make in Wyoming, the reciprocal license applicant will be ineligible for a reciprocal license.

(d) To receive a reciprocal license from the Department, the reciprocal license applicant must:

(i) Request that a letter from the licensing authority in the state where the applicator has been issued a license be sent to the Department. The letter must show that the reciprocal license applicant holds a license in good standing;

(ii) Complete all forms and submit any information the Department requires to process the application;

(iii) Submit a legible copy (front and back) of the current pesticide applicator license from the issuing state and a legible copy (front and back) of a valid government-issued photo identification; and

(iv) Submit a certificate of insurance or proof of bonding as required by W.S. 35-7-362. For federal government licensees, the insurance requirement does not apply.

(e) Reciprocal license holders may not directly supervise any apprentice applicator making applications in Wyoming.

(f) The Department may recognize any government classified license issued by the federal government and reciprocate as it would with any other license.

(g) Reciprocal license holders do not have to obtain continuing education to maintain their reciprocal licenses.

(h) A reciprocal license expires three years from the issuing date or on the date that the non-resident applicator's license from the reciprocating state expires, whichever comes earlier.

(i) A reciprocal license holder must immediately notify the Department of any violations he or she committed or any suspensions or revocations of any licenses or certifications he or she holds regardless of whether that license is the basis for the holder's Wyoming reciprocal license.
