California requires a repair shop to hold a state licence or registration: the Bureau of Automotive Repair issues it under Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 9884.6, and it is not collision-specific: the same credential covers general repair. That is the state credential behind the Inyo County numbers above; the register is the fourteen states that license body shops.
What a delinquent registration means
A delinquent status on the BAR register means the shop's registration renewal has lapsed in the state's records. Inyo County currently shows 4 of them. Before booking, check the shop yourself through the state's license search at the Department of Consumer Affairs, or follow our step-by-step guide to verifying a California body shop license.
