Escrow Officer Renewals
Don’t forget! Escrow Officer Licenses expire throughout the year, depending on the initial approval date. Renewals are paid online via the Escrow Officer Online Renewal System. The Department is seeing an increase in officers renewing late or not renewing before the license cancels. If the license cancels, the individual must reapply for the license which involves meeting new application requirements. See WAC 208-680-243 for renewal and reinstatement information for escrow officers.
