The Virginia Building Code, §108.2.10.3, states that no permit is required for:
Quote:
Replacement of general use snap switches, dimmer and control switches, 125 volt-15 or 20 ampere
receptacles, luminaries (lighting fixtures) and ceiling (paddle) fans in Group R-2 where serving a single
dwelling unit and in Groups R-3, R-4 and R-5.

And I don't see a requirement for a license for anything other than getting a permit. So I think you're good.
