Steps to start inspecting in Wyoming

  1. 01

    Learn the trade through a course or training of your choice. Wyoming sets no hour count.

  2. 02

    Take the NHIE if you want a recognized exam result. The state does not require it.

  3. 03

    Join a trade group, such as ASHI, if you want one of its titles.

How this was checked

No Wyoming agency page says in words that home inspectors are unregulated, so this page rests on a search. The statutes for business and professions, and every bill title from 2001 to 2026, show no home inspector license. The closest was House Bill 140 of 2026, on third-party building permit inspections, which died.

Where the NHIE still fits

The NHIE is open to anyone. ASHI, the American Society of Home Inspectors, asks members in a state with no license to pass it before they move up to its Inspector level, along with 50 paid inspections. Its ASHI Certified Inspector title asks for the NHIE and 250 paid inspections.

How long it takes in Wyoming

Wyoming has no home inspector license, so the state sets no hours, field work, or wait. How long it takes depends on the training you choose.

Home inspector pay in Wyoming

BLS puts the median pay for construction and building inspectors in Wyoming at $61,870 a year in May 2025, against $74,690 for the whole country. BLS counts about 370 people in that job in the state, and home inspectors are one specialty in the group, next to city and county code inspectors.

The number leaves out the self-employed. An inspector who owns the business is self-employed, so that pay isn't in it. For what owners report, see how much home inspectors make.
