## New York's public work contractor registry, certificate by certificate

Type a contractor's name or a certificate number. 14,873 contractors and subcontractors hold a certificate of registration in the state file of Oct 1, 2026.

Hiring a subcontractor for public work? A [dated registration report ($19)](/report.md) for your project file — or [your whole subcontractor list checked and watched](/pro.md).

### What this is

Since December 30, 2024, a contractor or subcontractor must be registered with the New York State Department of
Labor before bidding or working on a public work project — and on private projects covered by the prevailing wage. A
contractor must check that its subcontractors are registered. This site gives every certificate a record you can
find, read and cite: number, dates, and the answers the registry holds on workers' compensation, apprenticeship and
labor law.

### Who uses it

- **Contractors** — check a subcontractor before the bid, and keep the proof in the project file.
- **Registered businesses** — see your own record, and [when it expires](/expiring.md).
- **Public owners and estimators** — registered contractors by city, [MWBE owned](/mwbe.md)
or [with an apprenticeship program](/apprenticeship.md).

### What it is not

Not the Department of Labor, and not the certificate. A contractor missing here may have registered since
Oct 1, 2026: confirm in the state's own registry. [How to read the records](/how-to-read.md).
