How To Obtain a Maryland Lab License and CLIA Certification

To apply for a license for a new laboratory license, please mail with original signatures both the Maryland State Compliance Application and CLIA application with supporting documents outlined on the state application checklist page, to the address on the state application.

There is no fee to apply for a Maryland laboratory license.  CMS will bill you for CLIA fees.  After a completed application and all requested information is received by OHCQ, it takes 2 - 3 weeks to receive a Maryland laboratory license and CLIA certificate.

To report any changes to your license, please use the Laboratory Licensing Change Form.
