Guam nursing license renewal

Where and when to renew

The reviewed route is Guam official licensing portal. RN/LPN/APRN generally renew by September 30; portal opens about three months before expiration.

1. Confirm the credential and expiration date.
2. Review the current credential-specific requirements.
3. Complete required competence or education.
4. Submit the official renewal and payment.
5. Verify the updated license record.

Portal and account safety

• For Guam, open public status checks through Guam License Verification; use Guam Renewal Portal only for account or transaction work.
• The reviewed Guam renewal timing is RN/LPN/APRN odd years; CNA even years. RN/LPN/APRN generally renew by September 30; portal opens about three months before expiration.
• Before payment, match the exact credential (RN, LPN, APRN, CNA) and compare the displayed charge with this source-reviewed summary: Confirm the credential fee; the payment portal may add a 5% convenience charge.
• Use only reviewed authority domains (guamhplo.org, gbne.boardsofnursing.org); avoid search advertisements and look-alike renewal or verification pages.
• If the Guam portal does not show the expected option, check credential type, current status and renewal window before creating a second account or paying again.
• For unresolved account or routing issues, contact Guam Board of Nurse Examiners at (671) 735-7408/7409 and keep the confirmation number, date and staff response.
• After any transaction, return to Guam License Verification and verify the public record; a receipt by itself is not practice authority.

Renewal requirements and cautions

• Late renewal is accepted only through the Board’s stated period before reinstatement.
• Do not treat Guam as an operational multistate-license jurisdiction.

CE or competence connection

RN/LPN/APRN: 30 CE hours; APRN prescribers include 5 pharmacology hours; CNA: 15 hours.

• Use the credential-specific official instructions.
• Complete any mandatory topic or practice pathway.
• Retain supporting evidence for audit.

Common renewal problems

Fraud and privacy safety

• Begin every Guam transaction from a reviewed authority domain (guamhplo.org, gbne.boardsofnursing.org) or a source-reviewed link on this guide.
• Do not give a caller payment-card details, a password or a one-time code merely because the caller claims to represent Guam Board of Nurse Examiners.
• If threatened with immediate suspension or arrest, end the call and verify the issue through (671) 735-7408/7409 or the secure Guam account.
• Use Guam License Verification to confirm current status rather than a private lookup page or emailed screenshot.
• Upload identity, background, education or legal documents only through a secure method explicitly named by Guam Board of Nurse Examiners.
• Before paying, verify the credential, transaction and amount against the current Guam instructions; save the receipt and then verify the public record.
• For Guam, report a suspected licensing impersonation or phishing attempt to the authority and the relevant consumer-protection or law-enforcement channel.
