No. The out-of-state contractor my obtain a California contractor's license. If the out-of-state contractor is a corporation, it must also qualify to do business in California by registering with the Secretary of State.
Re: out of state contractors
An outside contractor cannot contract in California. An outside contract may do business in California if it meets conditions imposed by the Secretary of State and is involved in a joint venture with a contractor licensed in California and in good standing with the SEcretary of State. Good luck.
