In most jurisdictions there is no license required to mount televisions or other objects on walls. However, building codes vary from one to another so it is important to check with your local planning or building control department. It may be the case that wall mounting a television is covered by license codes within general building regulations.
In all cases, whether a license is needed or not, be sure that anyone who mounts equipment on walls is properly qualified to do so. Television are big heavy objects and can cause serious damage and injury if they fall from a mounting at high level. A qualified professional will have not only the experience to mount it safely but also should have insurance to cover possible problems in the future.
If you are looking to employ a professional, don't be afraid to ask how it will be mounted and what measures he will take to ensure it is a safe fixing.
