we're a specialty sub contractor in Ohio. We've been awarded a project in Sand City CA and the GC has asked for our California Contractors Pocket License. Again, we're in Ohio, how do we obtain this?
If you construct or alter a building, road, structure etc. and it is in excess of $500 then you need to be licensed in California to perform construction work. If licensed, you can get the pocket card through the state licensing board at the below address. There are a number of different classifications for special contractors.
