Is There Nursing License Reciprocity Between Nevada and North Dakota?

No. Nevada and North Dakota **do not have licensure reciprocity** for nurses.

Implications:

  • A Nevada RN/LPN license **does not authorize practice** in North Dakota.
  • To work in ND, you must **apply for licensure by endorsement** with the North Dakota Board of Nursing.
  • Requirements: Verification of NV license, transcripts, background check, fees, possibly jurisprudence exam.

Context: Both states are **NLC (Nurse Licensure Compact) members**—but **only for nurses whose primary state of residence (PSOR) is an NLC state**. If you live in NV (NLC state), your **NV compact license allows practice in ND (also NLC)**—but **only if NV is your PSOR**. If you move to ND, you must switch PSOR and get ND license.

Verify current status at NCSBN NLC map and each board's website.
