Idaho Contractor Registration Act
Idaho · Professions, Vocations, and Businesses · §§ 54-5201 to 54-5219 · 19 sections
Overview
This act governs the business of contracting for construction work, requiring persons who perform such work to register with the state before offering or undertaking it, while exempting certain categories of work or persons from that requirement. It creates a state contractors board with rulemaking and administrative authority over the registration system, setting out application, renewal, inactive-status, and reciprocity procedures, along with requirements that registrants display their certificate and include their registration number on building permits and at job sites. Enforcement rests on the board's power to investigate and to suspend or revoke registration, on criminal or civil penalties prosecuted by state and local prosecuting authorities, and on the loss of lien rights for those who contract without registering.
