Ditch the Pitch
You can file a complaint and submit applications for licensing online. Filings you do not wish to make, or that are not available, online can be submitted via mail for processing.
Department staff is available to assist with any questions at (800) 922-1594 (toll free in SC) or 803-734-4200 8:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding State holidays. You can also email general questions to [email protected].
The South Carolina Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) is implementing a new licensing database. Filing online through the Licensure Gateway reduces the time needed by applicants to submit required documents and decreases processing time by DCA staff. Programs are being added in phases. Please check the listing below to see what is currently available.
Please add [email protected] to your safe senders list or address book. All emails generated within the licensing system come from this address. Adding it will help ensure that you receive communications regarding your application status.
