Reciprocity

An organization or person who holds a radioactive materials specific license from the NRC or an agreement state who wants to perform that work in Minnesota, may apply for reciprocity to conduct the licensed activities in Minnesota. The reciprocity period is for a calendar year and material can only be used in Minnesota for a total of 180 days in that calendar year. To apply for reciprocity, use the link below. If you have an approved reciprocity for the year, submit reciprocity notifications through the system.

Once your reciprocity is approved, you will need to submit notifications each time you will perform work in the state. While in the state, you must follow the specific license requirements on the recognized license and Minnesota Rules, Chapter 4731.

  • Reciprocity Application – To apply for reciprocity. You will need to enter licensee information and upload a copy of the NRC or Agreement State license you are requesting MDH to recognize and pay the reciprocity fee.
  • Reciprocity Notification – To submit notifications for existing approved reciprocities. No fee required.
  • Reciprocity Rules (The Office of the Revisor of Statutes).
