Utah Real Estate License Renewal Dates and Continuing Education Requirements
- Utah Real Estate licenses expire every two years.
- You may renew your license up to 45 days before its expiration date.
- You can find your expiration date printed on the bottom of your license or verify it using the Utah Division of Real Estate’s online licensee database.
To maintain active license status, you must complete all Utah continuing education (CE) requirements by the 15th day of your renewal month. This timing avoids incurring a late fee and ensures on-time renewal.
If it’s your first real estate license renewal, your CE requirements include:
- A 12-hour new agent course
- 3 hours of a Division-approved mandatory course
- 3 hours of either elective or core topics
After your first renewal period, you must complete the following 18 CE credits every two-year cycle:
- 6 hours of core topic courses
- 3 hours of a Division-approved mandatory course
- 9 hours of elective coursework
If you do not renew your license before its expiration date, you can apply for a late renewal within 30 days. After this point, your license can be reinstated by completing:
- 24 CE hours, for licenses 31 days to 6 months past expiration
- 42 CE hours, for licenses 6 to 12 months past expiration
To fulfill your license renewal continuing education credit hours, AYPORealEstate has CE course packages that meet Utah Division of Real Estate requirements.
Update on Background Check Information and Fingerprinting
All real estate license renewals in the state of Utah require the licensee to obtain a fingerprint background check and enroll in the FBI’s Rap Back Fingerprint System.
Licensees should first visit the Utah Division of Real Estate’s website to review and sign an electronic consent form. The Division’s website also has a list of locations around the state where licensees can comply with this fingerprinting regulation.
However, due to COVID-19 concerns and restrictions, fingerprinting is currently suspended for license renewal. The Utah Division of Real Estate will notify licensees when this requirement resumes.
Information on Final Exams
There is no final exam score requirement to earn CE credits toward your Utah real estate license renewal.
Rules on Repeating Courses
You can only complete a CE course once per renewal term to receive credit toward your requirement.
