Determine if you're eligible
All funeral directors in Yukon must be registered, hold a licence and renew it every year. It's illegal to work without an active licence.
Eligibility
You're eligible to renew your licence if you currently hold a Yukon funeral director licence.
Renewal period
Funeral director licences expire annually on March 31. Submit your renewal application before March 1. This will ensure we can process your application before your licence expires.
