Terms

An independent site. Not the Board of Accountancy, and not a background-check service.

What this site is

An independent search layer over one public file. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Washington State Board of Accountancy or the State of Washington. It is not the official register, and nothing obtained here is a certified record. For anything official, go to the Board.

Our copy of the file is dated 2026-08-21. The Board updates its own file nightly, and roughly 206 licences are issued each month.

Although this information is updated nightly, the information found through this service is not guaranteed to be accurate or timely. The Board does not guarantee the use of this information for any purpose and as such, the information obtained from this database should not be considered an official endorsement of any individual or firm.

⚠️ Not a consumer reporting agency

This site is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq.), and nothing published or sold here is a consumer report.

You may not use this site, its pages, its search, its API or any dataset obtained from it, in whole or in part, as a factor in deciding a person's eligibility for:

• employment, promotion, reassignment or retention;
• credit or insurance underwriting;
• housing or tenancy;
• any other purpose covered by the FCRA.

Verifying that a licence exists, directly with the issuing authority, is a different act from screening a person — and where a decision about someone depends on it, the check belongs with a screening company that operates as a consumer reporting agency and carries the obligations that come with it.

Names, and why they appear here

This site republishes a public register that names people in their professional capacity. It does not use anyone's name or identity to endorse, advertise or sell anything, which is what Washington's Personality Rights Act (RCW 63.60) prohibits in Washington.

The distinction is not a technicality and we hold ourselves to it: no name on this site appears in an advertisement, and no name is used to suggest that someone recommends, supplies or is associated with anything sold here. If you think a page crosses that line, tell us and it comes down.

Having your entry removed

If you are named on this site and would rather not be, write to us and we will remove you. You do not have to explain why, and we will not ask.

Two things this cannot do, and we say so plainly rather than let you find out later: it does not change the official register, which is where the record actually lives; and it does not remove you from anyone else's copy of the same public data.

The sources, and what they require

This site republishes public registers. Source by source: the licence it is published under, and the condition its publisher sets — read from the publisher's own terms page, on the date shown.

Errors

If a page here is wrong, tell us and we will fix it. If the underlying record is wrong, we cannot fix that — it has to be corrected with the Washington State Board of Accountancy, and our copy follows once the published file does. The Board asks that questions about disciplinary action go to its enforcement line on (360) 664-9266, and everything else to customer service on (360) 753-2586.
