As of March 2026, Wyoming does not require a state license to perform home inspections.
However, we strongly recommend obtaining voluntary certification through ASHI (American Society of Home Inspectors) or InterNACHI (International Association of Certified Home Inspectors) to build credibility, demonstrate competence to clients, and stay current with industry standards. Some local jurisdictions within Wyoming may also have their own requirements.
Wyoming has no home inspector licensing, registration, or regulation of any kind at the state level. It is one of the few states where anyone can legally perform home inspections without education, examination, or insurance.
