Contractors Licensing
Contractors
If you’re applying for a local license or wanting to register your state license, please apply directly on PascoGateway.
If you're a contractor already registered in our system and need to update your contact information, please go to PascoGateway and create a new account. Once you've created a new account, email Contractor Licensing, so we can ensure the correct information is linked to your account.
In order for a licensed contractor to pull building permits, be listed as a subcontractor and obtain inspections in unincorporated Pasco County, the contractor must first register. It is the contractor’s responsibility to ensure that all licensing information on file with Pasco County is current.
Homeowners
If you’re a homeowner and need to check to see if a contractor you are hiring is licensed, please visit PascoGateway and search under the Contractor Licenses tab.
