Do you need a mold inspector license in Connecticut?

Connecticut does not license or register mold inspectors or assessors at the state level. The Connecticut Department of Public Health publishes mold abatement guidance under Conn. Gen. Stat. §19a-111l — which states that those guidelines are not regulations — and points residents to the EPA and to professional standards, but it does not issue a mold credential or maintain a roster of licensed inspectors. Connecticut inspectors typically hold a voluntary IICRC or ACAC certification. Separately, Connecticut Public Act 25-44 (effective July 1, 2026) governs automatic-renewal billing for any subscription service operating in the state, including inspection software and recurring client plans.

Who regulates mold inspection in Connecticut?
