California Private Investigator Practice Exam

A private investigator from another state can operate in California without needing a local license for a maximum of 60 days. This regulation ensures that PIs who conduct business in the state are compliant with California's legal and licensing requirements. The 60-day limit allows for temporary investigations or project-based work while ensuring that private investigators are adequately licensed for long-term operations. Once this period expires, the investigator must obtain the necessary California license to continue their work in the state, reflecting the importance of regulatory adherence in the profession.
