How Texas Electrician license verification works

A Electrician in Texas is licensed by the TX Contractor Licensing Board. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: license_number license_type type_code status expires issued county expiration_marker.

Board note: TX-TDLR, rung 1 (plain POST SearchResultsListBrowse.asp → SearchResultDetail.asp?1=<KEY>): electricians (ELCTRC: master/journeyman/apprentice/wireman/maintenance/sign/industrial) and A/C technicians + contractors (ACTECH/AIRREF). Number search spans programs → detail KEY prefix picks the profession. No DOB (name-only >1 → ambiguous). contractor_general: Texas has no general-contractor license. plumber: TSBPE (tsbpe.texas.gov), not TDLR; not attempted. Live 2026-11-03.

What a Electrician license check returns

Field check	Passes when
`license_number`	Equal to the board's number, ignoring prefix and leading zeros
`name`	Last name or declared alias matches; first name exact or nickname
`license_type`	The record is a Electrician license, strictly (no near-miss types)
`status`	The board shows an active status; probation is active with a flag
`expires`	Expiration is on or after today, where the board publishes it
