Montana's plumber licensing law does not cover fuel gas piping; gas piping and gas appliance installations are handled through mechanical permits and inspections by the state Building Codes Program or certified local governments, under the International Fuel Gas Code.

In Montana, you can check a license with the Montana DLI Construction Contractor Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Montana Department of Justice, Office of Consumer Protection.
