How often must an inactive license be renewed?

Every year
Every two years
Every three years
Every four years

The correct answer is: Every four years

An inactive contractor license in California must be renewed every four years. This renewal process is essential to maintain the license in a good standing status without requiring the licensee to actively engage in contracting work. During this inactive period, although the licensee is not conducting business, they still need to keep their license current to avoid any lapses that could lead to complications in the future when they decide to return to active status. It's important that contractors understand the renewal timelines to ensure they remain compliant with California Contractors License Law.
