Steps
Use the Pennsylvania Licensing System (PALS) at pals.pa.gov, or the general verify tool at pa.gov/services/dos/verify-a-professional-or-occupational-license
Select the State Board of Auctioneer Examiners when searching, since PALS covers many unrelated professions
Search by name or license number to confirm active status
Check for any disciplinary action history, which the same verification tool discloses (suspensions, fines, other penalties)
Note Pennsylvania also separately licenses 'registered trading assistants' and trading assistant companies (consignment-sale intermediaries) under the same board — verify the correct category
Known gotchas
PALS is a shared portal across dozens of PA licensing boards — picking the wrong board/profession filter returns no results even for a valid auctioneer
The 'registered trading assistant' category (e.g., people who list items for others on marketplaces) is a distinct license type under the same board and easy to overlook
Exam administration is via Pearson VUE, a separate system from PALS — don't confuse exam scheduling with license verification
