- A copy of your national certification or the letter stating you have passed the exam,
- A new, original passport regulation photograph taken within the last 6 months,
- A check or money order for $35.00.
Read the instructions on the form carefully.
Truthfully answer the moral turpitude questions on pages 2 and 3. If you have already provided documentation for any “yes” answers to the Board, you may write in that we have the records on file, and you do not need to provide it again. You do have to disclose (answer “yes” for) any and all old incidents again.
Please allow 6 to 8 weeks’ processing time for your license. We must be able to verify your national certification on PTCB’s or ICPT’s websites. Be aware that it can take 8 weeks or more before your certification may be posted on PTCB’s or ICPT’s websites. Plan ahead, and test early! Your application will be held until we are able to verify your certification.
EXAM DEADLINES, PTCB:
- The application deadline for this April - June testing window was April 4, 2008.
- If you test with PTCB after this window, it is unlikely that you will receive your certification before your license expires.
EXAM DEADLINES, ICPT:
- It is recommended that you test by the end of June, 2008 to allow time for the posting of your certification on ICPT’s website, and the processing of your new license.
If you have questions regarding your technician license, please contact Rene’ at the Oregon Board of Pharmacy by phone: 971-673-0001 or email: pharmacy.board@state.or.us.
Your new license will be valid until September 30, 2009, regardless of when you apply.
If you have had an address or employment change since the last renewal cycle, and you haven't updated your information with the Board, please submit an address change form, or submit your information online. Be advised, any change of address, or change of employment must be submitted to the Board within 15 days of the change.
PLEASE NOTE: If you have submitted your payment and renewal form, your cancelled check is your receipt. You, or your employer, can check the status of your license on our new, real-time, online verification system.
