# Optician Dispensing License in Washington — 896 active credentials

> Every active Optician Dispensing License credential in Washington State: how many there are, when they expire, and how to check one by its number. Department of Health data, collected 2026-08-20.

## Optician Dispensing License

Washington State holds **896** active credentials of this type — 0.2% of every active health care credential in the state. Here is what that number is made of, and how to check one.

### What kind of credential this is

A **Optician Dispensing License** is a **License** —
the broadest of Washington’s credentials. Where the state licenses a profession, it is generally unlawful to practise it without holding one, and the holder answers to the Department for how they practise.

That word is not a formality. Washington issues
304,441 active credentials in this form across the
state, and it decides what the holder may do without someone else’s
supervision. [How a license
differs from the others](/credential/license.md).

### When these credentials expire

Washington renews on the holder’s birthday, so these 896 expiry dates are spread right across the calendar rather than falling together. By year:

| Expires in | Active credentials | Share |
|---|---|---|
| [2026](/profession/optician-dispensing-license/expiring-2026.md) | 266 | 29.7% |
| 2027 | 630 | 70.3% |

### Continuing education

The Department records a continuing-education due date for
**894** of these 896 credentials
(99.8%). Where it is absent, that does not mean no hours are owed
— it means this file does not carry the date.

| Hours due by | Active credentials | Share |
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 65 | 7.3% |
| 2027 | 254 | 28.4% |
| 2028 | 322 | 36.0% |
| 2029 | 238 | 26.6% |
| 2030 | 15 | 1.7% |

### How long these holders have been credentialled

The oldest Optician Dispensing License credential still active in Washington was first issued in **1976**. 134 of the 896 were issued in 2024 or later — 15.0% of the profession is that new.

| First issued in | Active credentials | Share |
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 42 | 4.7% |
| 2025 | 52 | 5.8% |
| 2024 | 40 | 4.5% |
| 2023 | 25 | 2.8% |
| 2022 | 39 | 4.4% |
| 2021 | 26 | 2.9% |
| 2020 | 23 | 2.6% |
| 2019 | 46 | 5.1% |
| 2018 | 21 | 2.3% |
| 2017 | 27 | 3.0% |
| 2016 | 21 | 2.3% |
| 2015 | 20 | 2.2% |

### The disciplinary flag

**2** of the 896 active credentials of this type
carry a disciplinary flag in the Department’s file —
0.2% — and **2** carry one marked
pending.

This site publishes that count and no more: never who. The
reason is not discretion, it is accuracy — the published file carries a
yes/no flag and **nothing else**: no reason, no date, no case
number. Naming someone on the strength of it would publish a suspicion rather
than a fact. Every credential counted here is **active**.
[Why the line is drawn there](/discipline.md).

### Do not let the date pass

896 credentials of this type are active in Washington. Washington renews most of them on the holder’s birthday, every year or every two years, and continuing-education hours have to be done before that date — not after. Leave your details and we will tell you when yours is close, and pass your request for continuing-education hours to providers who teach for this credential.

We take no commission and we vouch for no training provider. We have no arrangement with any provider today — we are collecting these requests in order to go and find them. [What we do with this](/privacy.md).
