License Application
The Idaho Athletic Commission regulates all contests and exhibitions involving unarmed combat between individuals. Such events include all boxing, wrestling and martial arts contests or exhibitions, including simultaneous telecasts of any live, current or spontaneous event on a closed circuit telecast within Idaho, whether originating in Idaho or elsewhere.
PRIOR TO APPLYING FOR LICENSURE AND/OR EVENT SANCTIONING YOU MUST REVIEW AND COMPLY WITH THE LAWS AND RULES GOVERNING THE STATE ATHLETIC COMMISSION.
If you are submitting an APPLICATION FOR AN EVENT SANCTIONING PERMIT you must be aware of the deadline as described in Rule 301.02 that states a complete application for a sanctioning permit together with application fees, initial event tax, applicable bond amount, proof of insurance, and information regarding the combatants named in the main and semi-main contest must be received by the commission no less than thirty (30) days prior to the date requested for the event named in the application. This will be strictly enforced.
All Commission approvals shall be in writing and authorized by the Commissioner.

License Renewal
ONLINE LICENSE RENEWAL
Please complete your renewal application and payment of fees through the ONLINE renewal system. There are no additional fees for this service. Documents, if required, may be uploaded when you renew. If you have questions, please contact renewal@dopl.idaho.gov or 208-334-3233.
If you have not yet met the continuing education requirement, do not submit a renewal indicating that you have. Submitting a fraudulent application for licensure is grounds for discipline against your license.
For your license to remain valid, it must be renewed before the expiration date each year. You must have an active license to promote, officiate, or compete in an Athletic Commission sanctioned event in Idaho.
As a courtesy, license renewal reminders are mailed to your mailing address of record approximately six (6) weeks before the license expiration date. If you do not receive a renewal notice, you can still renew online and update your address if needed. You are responsible to timely renew your license whether you receive a renewal notice or not.
Please note: If you fail to renew your license before its expiration date a reinstatement fee will be required by Idaho Code 67-2614 and cannot be waived. In addition, you may be required to submit continuing education or other required documentation prior to the reinstatement of your license.
EXPIRED LICENSE
Q: I have let my license lapse, what must I do to activate that license?
A: A license that has been lapsed less than five years may be reinstated upon submission of a renewal application together with the payment of renewal fees, a license re-instatement fee, and proof of completion of continuing education as required in the rules. If a license has lapsed for more than five years, a new application for licensure is required.
