MD HB887

Out-of-state CPAs may practice in Maryland without a Maryland license if they hold a valid CPA license from another state and were required to pass the Uniform CPA Examination to obtain that license

Eliminates the previous requirement that NASBA (National Association of State Boards of Accountancy) verify the other state's licensing requirements as substantially equivalent to the Uniform Accountancy Act

Qualified out-of-state CPAs may practice by any means (mail, telephone, electronic communication) without notice, fee, or submission to Maryland's Board

Out-of-state practitioners and their employers must consent to Maryland Board jurisdiction, comply with Maryland accountancy laws, and cease practicing if their home state license becomes invalid

Effective October 1, 2025
