- Surety bond filed with the board (when required)

This is the standard packet most U.S. state boards require. Verify the exact list with the Indiana Plumbing Commission (PLA) before applying — requirements change by trade classification.
Fees and renewal cycle
Total cost to become a licensed gas technician in Indiana ranges from $150 to $7,000 (typical $1,200). The range covers application + exam fees, bond + insurance premiums, and the first year of business registration.
