For special exceptions of individuals the same applies to landowners. Hound, as an example, had to be sponsored by Doc for several years, essentially giving him a "trial period." But, Hound's reputation was already widespread, so the sponsorship was just a legal formality. The same with Praetor, except that didn't turn out very well and di a lot to damage Doc's credibility.

In the case of who can carry what, because Whitemarch runs on a free-market feudal system, people live in a mideval caste hierarchy, so there are similarities there. As to if someone is checked for what they are allowed, everyone carries a form of identification, magically sealed so as to be unalterable and is tied to their SE and/or DE signature. Their ID says what they are licensed for.
