Mobile Unit Registration
The Board’s mobile cosmetology and barbering policy allows mobile services at locations chosen by the
client, such as a client’s home, office, etc., and services in a mobile vehicle equipped as a shop. Under this
policy, “all persons and businesses that offer Mobile Services shall register.” This means that each of the
following must be registered and approved before offering mobile services: (1) a licensee offering mobile
services, whether on location or in a vehicle (an individual); (2) a business with more than one licensee
providing mobile services (a mobile business); and (3) a vehicle equipped as a shop (a mobile unit). Each
licensee, business, and unit must register using a different form. An owner of a business or unit does not
need to be a licensee, but all individuals who provide mobile services must be licensed to provide those
services. This is a registration form ONLY for a mobile unit.
To be complete, this application must include: (1) a passport photograph of the applicant; (2) a copy of a
driver’s license or state identification card for each owner; (3) a copy of the professional license(s) for each
owner (if applicable); (4) a signed Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) form for each owner, a copy
of which is attached; (5) a detailed floor plan of the inside of the vehicle identifying stations, sinks, the
bathroom, fire extinguishers, and doors; (6) a copy of your state vehicle registration certificate; (7) a copy of
proof of insurance for the vehicle; and (8) a 4” X 7” photograph of a side-view of the vehicle.
Each mobile unit must be inspected by the Board’s investigations staff before the unit’s registration is
approved. Once your registration is received by the Board and is complete, a member of the Board’s staff
will call you to arrange the inspection.
After the Board receives and approves your registration, you will receive an approval letter. You are
not authorized to provide mobile services until you receive that approval letter.
