§30-8-7. Biennial renewal of registration; restoration of expired certificate.
Every registered optometrist who desires to continue in active practice or service shall, biennially, on or before the first day of August, of that year, renew his or her certificate of registration and pay a biennial renewal fee as determined by legislative rule. Every certificate of registration which has not been renewed shall expire on the first day of August of that year. A registered optometrist whose certificate of registration has expired for three years or less may have the same restored only upon payment of all required renewal and late fees for each lapsed year, and submit proof of accumulated continuing education hours for each year that has lapsed.
