S.C. Code Regs. § 81-501 - Renewal and Reinstatement of License
(A) Licenses shall be issued with a uniform expiration date and shall remain active for a period of two years. A licensee may renew the license beginning three months before the expiration date. If a licensee fails to renew the license before the expiration date, the license is deemed lapsed and practice must cease until the license is renewed. A late renewal period shall exist for a period of three months from the expiration date, during which time the licensee may late renew upon payment of the renewal fee and a late renewal fee.
(B) Upon expiration of the late renewal period, a licensee may apply for reinstatement of the license, including payment of the reinstatement fee, the current renewal fee, and demonstration of continued competency to the satisfaction of the committee. The committee may recommend denial of reinstatement to a licensee who has committed an act that would be grounds for discipline.
Notes
State regulations are updated quarterly; we currently have two versions available. Below is a comparison between our most recent version and the prior quarterly release. More comparison features will be added as we have more versions to compare.
