i Deadlines, fees, and what happens if you are late

When it is due
MD: "Physician licenses expire on January 31 of even years." DO: "Osteopathic Physician and Surgeon license renewals are due May 31st of even years." Controlled substance licenses renew at the same time as the main license. (Next renewal for both: 2028, since the 2026 dates have passed.)
Fee
$193 (MD or DO, 2-year renewal). Add $78 to renew a Utah controlled substance license (total $271). Verified on the FY 7/1/2025-6/30/2026 DOPL fee schedule ("Physician and Surgeon ... Renewal Fee 193.00"; "Osteopathic Physician and Surgeon 200.00 / 193.00"; "Controlled Substance 100.00 / 78.00") and stated as "$193 renewal fee" on the DO renewal page. Fees are non-refundable and "subject to change each July 1."
Late fee
No separate late-renewal window; a lapsed license is a reinstatement. Within 30 days after expiration: renewal fee PLUS $20 for EACH license being reinstated. After 30 days and within 2 years: renewal fee PLUS $50 for EACH license (from the DOPL Renewal/Reinstatement form v.20231107; matches the fee schedule's "Late Renewal Fee $20.00 / Reinstatement Fee $50.00"). The physician license and the controlled substance license are separate licenses, so the per-license fee applies to each.
If you miss the deadline
No grace period: under Utah Code 58-1-308(2)(b) "A license that is not renewed prior to the expiration date shown on the license automatically expires." Reinstatement is available within 2 years of nonrenewal (renewal fee + reinstatement fee + proof of renewal qualifications); a license "reinstated no later than 120 days after it expires shall be retroactively reinstated to the date it expired" (58-1-308(5)(c)). After 2 years you must qualify for a new license (58-1-308(6)(a)), with a 6-month exception for those practicing under federal employment or another state license after reestablishing Utah domicile. Reinstatement cannot be done online; DOPL requires the manual Renewal/Reinstatement form. Practicing after expiration is unlawful conduct and a criminal offense (Utah Code 58-1-501(1)(a), 58-1-502), and DOPL may discipline for time worked unlicensed even after reinstatement.
Processing time
Online renewal via My License One: payment receipt emailed within 2 business days; a copy of the renewed license is emailed 1-3 business days after approval (stated on the DO renewal page; both professions use the same My License One system). No published timeline for paper reinstatements.

4 Frequently Asked Questions

When does my Utah medical license expire? ▾
MD licenses expire January 31 of even-numbered years; DO licenses are due May 31 of even-numbered years. Your controlled substance license renews at the same time as the main license. The exact date is printed on your license.
How much does renewal cost? ▾
$193 for the 2-year MD or DO renewal, plus $78 if you also hold a Utah controlled substance license ($271 total). Fees are non-refundable and reset each July 1 (FY2026 DOPL fee schedule).
How do I renew online? ▾
Log in to My License One (utahdoc.mylicenseone.com) with your UtahID, find your license under 'Existing License/Registration Holders' (use the 'Don't see your license' link if needed), and start the renewal from the Actions menu. DOPL notes the process works best on a computer, not a mobile device.
What happens if I miss the deadline? ▾
The license automatically expires with no grace period. Within 30 days you reinstate by paying the renewal fee plus $20 per license; after 30 days and within 2 years, renewal fee plus $50 per license, using the paper Renewal/Reinstatement form (not the online portal). If reinstated within 120 days, the license is retroactive to the expiration date. After 2 years you must qualify as a new applicant.
What CME do I need to renew? ▾
40 hours per 2-year cycle, at least 34 hours Category 1 (AOA or ACCME for DOs), per R156-67-304 (MD) / R156-68-304 (DO); 3.5 hours of controlled substance prescribing CE if you hold a CS license (Utah Code 58-37-6.5, R156-37-402); and at least one of DOPL's approved online suicide prevention trainings (0.5 credit each, count toward CE). DOPL audits on a random-sample basis.
Can I keep practicing while my reinstatement is processing? ▾
No. Practicing after expiration is unlawful conduct and a criminal offense under Utah Code 58-1-501(1)(a) and 58-1-502, and DOPL may take disciplinary action for any period worked without a license even after it is renewed or reinstated. The only protection is the retroactive effect of a reinstatement completed within 120 days.
