Where a Indiana journeyman plumber license transfers

Indiana licenses plumbers statewide through the Indiana Plumbing Commission, which is administered by the Professional Licensing Agency (PLA) under IC 25-28.5-1. The Commission registers Plumbing Apprentices and approves apprenticeship programs and schools, and it issues Journeyman Plumber and Plumbing Contractor licenses to individuals, a Temporary Plumbing Contractor license, and a Corporate Plumbing Business registration for entities. Applications, renewals and license verification are handled online in MyLicense One with an Access Indiana account. The Indiana journeyman examination is administered by the testing vendor Prov, and initial license fees depend on whether the license is issued in an odd or even year of the two-year cycle. Indiana's statute contains a reciprocity section (IC 25-28.5-1-19) and nonresident provisions (IC 25-28.5-1-12(d) and -20), so an out-of-state journeyman applies to the Commission rather than to any city or county; cities may require a licensed plumber to register but may not require any other license (IC 25-28.5-1-33).
