Maine CPA Firm Renewal — What the Firm Itself Must File

Maine firm registration/permit — not individual license renewal

A CPA firm's own registration or permit to practice renews separately from any individual staff CPA's license — and it's usually the filing that falls through the cracks, because it belongs to whoever handles firm admin, not to a specific licensee tracking their own renewal. Here's exactly when Maine's firm-level filing is due.

Individual CPA license and firm license

September 30, 2026

The Board's own page states both individual CPA licenses and firm licenses renew annually on September 30, and the codified rule independently confirms all licenses expire annually with no cohort split -- but the codified rule never states the specific September 30 date itself.

Source of record (official records, not codified rule text) Confirmed via Maine ALMS Online license-verification portal (Board of Accountancy, board code 4110): live individual and firm license records (CP9957, FM10001345, FMF10001174, FM10001299) all show expiration 09/30/2026 -- verified 2026-07-30. see the records →

Last verified: 2026-07-30 · checked against the state's codified statute or administrative rule, not just a board webpage — if we can't verify a date against primary law, we say so instead of guessing (see how we verify every deadline). Always confirm with the official state board before relying on this date. License requirements and deadlines can change.

Tracking this for more than one firm, or want someone else watching it?

Any individual CPA at your firm can already get free renewal reminders for their own license. What Deadline-Radar's firm tier adds is the view your admin doesn't get from 20 separate free sign-ups: one place to see the whole roster's status — including this firm-level filing — not 20 inboxes to hope someone's watching.
