I don't know of or ever heard of having to have a license to teach firearms or firearms safety except what has been mentioned.

Some states require standards (don't know if you call it a license) to teach CCW classes) some don't.

Some states may require a business license or other tax id number to collect and pay sales tax if your state has sales tax on services.

But excluding that, I never heard of a license per se for firearms training.

Its best to have some sort of instructor training, and background because if anyone you instruct is involved in a shooting, SD, accident, or what ever, you can bet your butt you're going to end up in court. Best be able to make your case. Have some sort of legit training and extensive background in the subject you teach.

Non-government entities, such as the NRA, CMP, Appleseed, etc. require you to have their training certificate if you teach their classes and represent them.
