The FE is the credential behind NFPA 10 — NFPA 10 is a standard, not a certification. 100 questions, 2 hours, open book on NFPA 10 only. In Georgia, FE certification is what qualifies a technician for an individual permit under Rule 120-3-23, tied to a licensed fire-extinguisher service company.

What it costs
Issuer fees change yearly. LifeSafetyWiki never republishes a fee we can’t verify against the source — when in doubt, the issuer’s portal is the source of truth.
ICC publishes the current FE renewal fee and CEU requirement in your myICC account — verify there rather than trusting a figure quoted elsewhere.
Georgia individual technician permits renew annually alongside the company licence. Applies only if you service extinguishers in Georgia.
