How many licensed trades Utah actually has, which trades they work in, and where they are. Straight from the state board, as of August 9, 2026, when its register was last collected.
Utah carries 22,555 skilled-trades licenses on its state register as of August 9, 2026, 659.9 per 100,000 residents.
This register has not been re-collected since August 9, 2026, 58 days ago. Every figure below is real and is stated as of that date, but it is not nightly-fresh the way the rest of this site is: Utah is one of the registers ATI cannot currently sweep on a schedule. Treat these counts as a dated snapshot, and see Sources for which registers are affected and why.
Counts are license records, not people: a holder with more than one license appears once per license, and a contractor license is a business, not a worker.

The twelve places with the most licensed trades in Utah. Location is the address on the register, usually the business or mailing address, so counts cluster on registration addresses rather than job sites.
