LPN Renewal Information

LPN licenses expire on 5-31 of each even-numbered year. Enroll yourself as a Nurse in Nursys® e-Notify at www.nursys.com/enotify in order to receive license renewal reminders and notification of any changes to your license or discipline status.

License renewal directions will be emailed to nurses approximately three months prior to the expiration date. You have a legal responsibility to change your name and/or address within 30 days of the change. Failure to inform the board of your current residence is cause for license discipline. You may request changes to your name and/or address at https://info.mo.gov/pr-forms/nursing/nursing-address.php

No Grace Period to Renew

There is no grace period to renew. A nurse is required to renew 3 business days prior to the expiration date. Failure to do so may result in the license becoming lapsed, which requires the nurse to complete a reinstatement application, submit additional fees and submit to fingerprint background checks.

Missouri does not issue a license card. The public, including employers, can verify your license at https://www.nursys.com/ by clicking on LOOK UP A LICENSE on the QuickConfirm pane. This is a free service. Select QuickConfirm, which is the center pane.
