Alaska State Board of Registration for Architects, Engineers, and Land Surveyors

Renewal Forms

The 2024-2025 AELS renewal will open as soon as the new continuing education regulations are in effect which we are estimating to be late October. Renewal notices will be emailed to all registrants who have opted-in in their MY LICENSE account and mailed to those who have not opted-in. Please note, you must wait for an updated renewal application to renew your license. You cannot renew your license using any prior renewal forms. If you need to renew your license for the current licensing period (1/1/2022 – 12/31/2023), email AELSboard@Alaska.Gov to request the appropriate form. To ensure receipt of renewal notifications and other correspondence from our office, please go to MY LICENSE and confirm your current mailing address is on file.
