Minnesota Administrative Rules

3100.1700 TERMS AND RENEWAL OF LICENSE OR REGISTRATION; GENERAL.

Subpart 1.

Requirements.

The requirements of this part apply to the terms and renewal of a license or registration. The requirements for the terms and renewal of licensure as a limited faculty dentist, resident dentist, resident dental therapist, or resident dental hygienist are specified in part 3100.1750.

Subp. 1a.

Initial term.

An initial license or registration issued by the board is valid from the date issued until the last day of the licensee's or registrant's birth month in either the following even-numbered year for an even-numbered birthdate year or the following odd-numbered year for an odd-numbered birthdate year, or terminated according to the procedures in this part.

Subp. 1b.

Biennial term.

A properly renewed license or registration issued by the board is valid from the first day of the month following expiration for 24 months until renewed or terminated according to the procedures in this part.

Subp. 1c.

Fees.

The initial, biennial renewal, and late fee amounts are under Minnesota Statutes, section 150A.091, subdivisions 3, 5, and 7.

Subp. 2.

Biennial renewal.

Each licensee or registrant must submit an application for biennial renewal of a license or registration by paying the required fee to the board no later than the last day of the licensee's or registrant's birth month, which is the application deadline. The application must require the licensee or registrant to certify compliance with maintaining a consecutive and current CPR certification. Failure by a licensee or registrant to maintain a consecutive and current CPR certification subjects the licensee or registrant to disciplinary proceedings under parts 3100.6100 and 3100.6200 and Minnesota Statutes, section 150A.08, subdivision 1.

Subp. 3.

Failure to submit biennial renewal.

A.

If a licensee or registrant fails to biennially renew the licensee's or registrant's license or registration, the board shall, after the application deadline, send a notice to the licensee or registrant. The notice must state the amount of the renewal and late fees.

B.

A licensee or registrant must renew the licensee's or registrant's license or registration within 30 days of the license's or registration's expiration date.

C.

If the licensee or registrant fails to renew the licensee's or registrant's license or registration according to item B, the board shall administratively terminate the license or registration and the right to practice. The board shall not consider an administrative termination of a license or registration to be a disciplinary action against the licensee or registrant.

D.

If a licensee or registrant elected not to renew the licensee's or registrant's license or registration, the licensee or registrant may:

(1)

voluntarily terminate the license or registration; or

(2)

apply for an emeritus inactive or emeritus active license through the board, except for individuals with a limited radiology registration.

Subp. 4.

Reinstatement.

A license terminated in this part may be reinstated according to part 3100.1850. A limited radiology registration terminated in subpart 3 may be reinstated according to part 3100.1320.

Subp. 5.
