Section R4-9-116. License Renewal

A.       To renew a license, a licensee shall submit the following infor- mation to the Registrar and advise the Registrar of any change in the information within 30 days of the change:

1.        If the licensee is a corporation or a limited liability com- pany, evidence that the entity is in good standing with the Arizona Corporation Commission.

2.        The licensee’s current privilege license number, issued under A.R.S. § 42-5005.

B.       A licensee shall renew each license on or before the renewal date. Failure to comply results in suspension of the license on the day following the renewal date by operation of law. The Registrar shall collect a $50.00 late fee if renewal is completed after the renewal date. Based on the severity of the violation, the Registrar may refuse to renew a license after determining

that a licensee has committed or been found guilty of any act listed in A.R.S. § 32-1154(A).

C.       To renew a contracting license, a licensee shall submit an application for renewal to the Registrar, accompanied by the required renewal fee. Timely submission of an application is evidenced by the date stamped on the documents by the Regis- trar or the date on “postage prepaid” documents if the submis- sion is deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, on or before the renewal date. Timely submission authorizes the licensee to operate as a contractor until actual issuance of the renewal license.

D.       If a license has been suspended by operation of law for failure to renew, a licensee may still renew the license within one year of its suspension by submitting an application for renewal and paying the applicable renewal fee and a $50.00 late fee. If a license has been suspended for one or more years for failure to renew, the license shall expire and the former licensee must submit an application for a new license.
