If an inspector's license is expired for more than 90 days, what is the fee required for renewal?

The requirement for renewing an inspector's license after it has expired for more than 90 days establishes a clear consequence for maintaining compliance in the profession. When a license is expired beyond this period, the regulatory authority has determined that a significantly increased fee is applicable to encourage timely renewal and prevent lapses in professionalism and safety standards.

In this case, the obligation is to pay two times the required renewal fee. This heightened fee structure serves as an incentive for inspectors to keep their licenses current, thereby ensuring that they are up-to-date with the latest regulations, practices, and knowledge necessary to perform their duties effectively and safely. Such measures are common in various professional fields as a way to promote accountability and protect public interest.

It’s important for inspectors to be aware of these renewal fees and timelines to avoid unnecessary costs and maintain their ability to practice in a timely manner.
