Bill > SB497

This bill establishes requirements for the Maryland OneStop portal, which is an internet-based statewide licensing platform managed by the Department of Information Technology. Under the bill, the Department must update all state government licenses, forms, certificates, permits, applications, and registrations on Maryland OneStop by December 1, 2025, and then every two months thereafter, working in coordination with state government units. Additionally, each county and municipal corporation will be required to make all of their local licenses, forms, certificates, permits, applications, and registrations available on the portal by July 1, 2026, and then update these materials every two months starting September 1, 2026. The goal appears to be creating a comprehensive, centralized online resource for government licensing and registration information that is consistently maintained and easily accessible to the public. The bill will take effect on October 1, 2025, providing time for government entities to prepare and implement the necessary updates to the portal.
