How is COVID-19 impacting state licensing?
Due to the current COVID-19 situation, many state governments had mandated restrictions and/or complete shutdowns of ‘non-essential’ businesses and services that are just now beginning to open again. The exact impact that these restrictions and shutdowns will still depend on the state that a manufacturer is operating in, as well as what sort of license they are pursuing: initial or renewal. Fortunately, Two Labs is able to continue our state licensing services so that your launch timeline can continue as smoothly as possible.
How is COVID-19 impacting initial licensing and business structure change filing?
So far, we have seen a very limited number of states formally defer or waive requirements (e.g., office inspections and fingerprinting), but many states have confirmed that waivers or deferrals are not even a consideration at this time. These are the updates we gathered as of June 8, 2020.
How is COVID-19 impacting renewal license filing?
Two Labs has been proactively contacting all regulatory agencies to confirm the status of their license application processing. Due to newly implemented work-from-home policies or temporary shutdowns of all operations, many agencies have extended deadlines and/or revised their typical procedures.

What is your advice for manufacturers who are navigating state licensing at this time?
It is vitally important that manufactures work with a partner who has the capabilities to proactively monitor state-by-state policy and procedure updates. Whether you’re looking for a new business license, renewing a nearly expired one or filing for a change of business license, Two Labs can make sure that your company can stay on track.
What if a manufacturer is operating in a state not listed above?
The above lists represent those states that have provided formal guidance or responded to inquiries as of June 8, 2020. For states that are shut down or not providing responses, we are preparing and filing applications based on normal deadlines and requirements.
