OLR Report 2013-R-0215 how much occupational license and registration fees have changed in the last 10 years (2003-2013).
License and registration fees for state-credentialed occupations were generally raised only once in the last 10 years. The vast majority of these fee increases were part of the 2009 budget bill (PA 09-3), which generally (1) doubled fees under $150, (2) increased fees between $150 and $1,000 by 25%, and (3) added $250 to fees of $1,000 or more.
Table 1 in the report shows the fees for an initial license or registration in 2003 and 2013, by department. The table does not show renewal fees, which in some cases may be higher or lower than the initial fees.
