All physicians, physician assistants, acupuncturists and others licensed by the TMB to practice in Texas are currently required to register regularly with the board, and pay a fee. Registration fees and renewal periods vary according to license type. A licensee may obtain a registration permit by completing the online registration/renewal, or submitting the required hard copy form, and paying the required fee to the Board on or before the expiration date of the permit.
Information regarding continuing education requirements for all license types can be located in the “Licensee Resources” section of our website.
If the registration information provided on our web site did not answer your questions, please contact the TMB by e-mail at Registrations@tmb.state.tx.us. Please include your name and license number.

Electronic Licenses
The Texas Medical Board is transitioning to electronic licenses for a more paperless experience and to allow for enhanced licensee control. As of September 1, 2019 the Board will no longer issue paper licenses after a completed registration/renewal for the following license types:
What does this mean for licensees renewing their licenses on or after September 1, 2019?
Once your registration/renewal is complete, please allow 2 business days for processing. After that time, you will be able to log into your MyTMB account and view, save or print a copy of your active license. In addition, after September 1, 2019, you will be able to use the same system to view, save or print a copy of your active license as needed.
Please note that primary source verification regarding licensure status is always available to anyone, including licensees’ employers, via the TMB website through Look up a License.
