Does my pharmacist license transfer to Wyoming?

A pharmacist license transfers to Wyoming through the NABP Electronic Licensure Transfer Program: NABP verifies your active license and NAPLEX history in your e-Profile and forwards them to the Wyoming State Board of Pharmacy, which issues the license once you pass its law exam. NAPLEX is not retaken; the score and license history transfer via the NABP Electronic Licensure Transfer Program (Preliminary Application for Transfer / e-Profile). Wyoming requires passing the MPJE for Wyoming; the state has not adopted the Uniform MPJE. The NAPLEX is not retaken. Wyoming application fee: $200 (Wyoming licensure-by-reciprocity fee (059-21 Wyo. Code R. 21-3); licensure by examination is $75 and renewal is $100/year. Separate from NABP: the NABP eLTP fees ($300 + $100 per jurisdiction), the MPJE exam fee, and the criminal background check fee are additional.).

Verdict

Licensure by endorsement

The move into Wyoming runs on two steps in sequence. First the NABP eLTP carries your license and NAPLEX record to the Wyoming State Board of Pharmacy; then Wyoming's own law exam gates the license. Neither re-tests your pharmacy education — the eLTP is verification, and the law exam covers Wyoming's pharmacy law. Open the e-Profile transfer early, because NABP's verification and scheduling the law exam are the two steps that set your timeline, not the application itself.

No interstate compact for pharmacy; transfer runs through the NABP e-LTP and the Board makes the licensure decision. The MPJE for Wyoming is required, so full_reciprocity = false. A transferring pharmacist must show one year of active practice or complete a 400-hour Board-approved Wyoming internship, and must clear a fingerprint-based Wyoming DCI criminal background check before the license issues.
