Idaho law requires the licensure of all persons who practice or offer to practice podiatry in the State of Idaho. The qualifications of licensure and the credentials to be filed by applicants can be found under the Board’s State Licensure Laws and Rules.

If you are a member of the armed forces, an honorably discharged veteran or the spouse of an active member or veteran of the military, you are entitled to certain benefits because of your service. Those benefits may include expedited processing of your application and credit for military training that is relevant to the occupational license/registration for which you are applying. Additionally, active members of the military may be eligible for a waiver of renewal fees and other renewal requirements.
If you have questions, please contact the Division at (208) 334-3233 or POD@dopl.idaho.gov.
Renewal
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.
Education Approval Application
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 208-577-2627.
For your license to remain valid, it must be renewed before the expiration date each year. You cannot practice on an expired license.
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.
Active members of the military may be eligible for a waiver of renewal fees and other renewal requirements; see Idaho Code 67-2606.
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.
