Not stated
The pages only state that out-of-province apprentices working temporarily in Nova Scotia do not have to register again and face no further requirements; nothing is stated about tradespersons already licensed in another province registering in Nova Scotia. Source
“If you are an Out-of-province/territory apprentice planning to work TEMPORARILY in Nova Scotia: Make sure you carry your apprentice ID card. You do NOT have to register again in Nova Scotia.”
