To obtain a license by reciprocity, what documentation is needed?

To obtain a license by reciprocity, the key requirement is to present both the original license and the associated test scores from the state in which the applicant was originally licensed. This documentation serves as validation that the individual has already met the necessary qualifications and standards established by another jurisdiction, thereby easing the transition into practice in Missouri.

By submitting the original license, the applicant demonstrates that they are legally recognized as a professional in their previous state. The test scores add another layer of verification, confirming that the applicant has successfully completed the necessary examinations that reflect their competency to practice funeral directing.

While proof of previous employment, references from other funeral directors, or proof of continuing education credits may be relevant in other contexts or states, they are not the primary required documents when seeking a license by reciprocity in Missouri.
