Check if a medical laboratory or lab professional is licensed

Kenya Medical Laboratory Technicians and Technologists Board · sources read 2 Oct 2026

Search the lab's name, file number or county on KMLTTB's Licence Records page (kmlttb.org/labsverification) and check that the Valid Year is current and the Status is active. For a lab technician or technologist, use Search Professional Records.

Fee
We couldn't confirm a fee from the official page. Check it there before you pay.
Where
Online on kmlttb.org (Licence Records and Search Professional Records). KMLTTB offices: ACK Garden House, Block A, 4th Floor, 1st Ngong Avenue, Nairobi.
Go to KMLTTB

Steps

  1. Open kmlttb.org/labsverification and type the lab's name, file number or county.
  2. Check the result: the class, county, Valid Year (it should be this year) and Status.
  3. To check a person, open kmlttb.org/professionals (Search Professional Records) and search by name, ID number or registration number.
  4. Not listed or expired? Report it to KMLTTB through the online complaint form at kmlttb.org/complaint.

Watch out

  • A lab needs both a registration certificate and a licence renewed every year. An old year in the register means the licence has lapsed.
  • A licensed lab is not enough: everyone running tests there must also be a registered lab technician or technologist.
