I don't know if that bulb has a dedicated fuse or shares one with the tail lamps (for example)
But if you remove the bulb, you can test it with a continuity meter.
If the bulb is NOK, replace it.
If it is OK, then there is possibly a bad connection in the socket or, as you suggest, blown fuse.
But I would expect a blown fuse also to have stopped other items working.

Start with the bulb. It is a very easy and cheap fix. When you remove the bulb you will know immediately if it is bad by seeing if the glass is burnt or if the element inside is broken. If it happens to be good then move on to the fuse. Good luck!

OK>>> it is very cold here, but nonetheless..I went outside to check on my Oldsmobile for your benefit....On mine (I can't guarantee it is the same for all of the vehicles listed above). If you are looking at the license plate, LOOK UP and you should see the bulb and whatever encasing is there. Mine is in a tube and it is attached with (2) mini bolts that will need to come out first, then it just looks like a simple matter of disconnecting the electrical plug, taking out the old bulb and putting the new one in. I hope this helps someone....

Take a thin blade screw driver and gently pry between the rubber seal and the metal and pop the light out, replaced the bulb and pop the light back in. works fine.
SOURCE: license's plate light stopped working even with new bulb.
It wouldn't be a fuse if that's the only light that's not working, I believe all of the parking lights are on the same fuse. It's most likely a bad ground or corrosion inside the socket where the bulb makes the electrical connection. So check the socket to make sure it has no corrosion, if it does, clean it up and apply some dielectric grease (available at any parts store) to prevent future corrosion, and check for a loose or broken ground wire.
