(a) The Board shall send via email an annual registration
renewal notice to each Registered Interior Designer. A Registered
Interior Designer must notify the Board in writing (email, fax, on
the Board's Web site, or by U.S. mail) each time the Registered Interior
Designer's email address or mailing address of record changes. The
written notice of the Registered Interior Designer's change of address
must be submitted to the Board within thirty (30) days after the effective
date of the change of address.
(b) A Registered Interior Designer may renew his/her
registration prior to its specified annual expiration date by:
(1) remitting the correct fee to the Board; and
(2) providing the information or documentation requested
by the annual registration renewal notice.
(c) If a Registered Interior Designer fails to remit
a completed registration renewal form and the prescribed fee on or
before the specified expiration date of the Registered Interior Designer's
registration, the Board shall impose a late payment penalty that must
be paid before the Registered Interior Designer's registration may
be renewed.
(d) If the Board receives official notice that a Registered
Interior Designer has failed to pay court ordered child support, the
Board may be prohibited from renewing the Registered Interior Designer's
registration.
(e) If a registration is not renewed within two (2)
years after the specified registration expiration date, the registration
shall be cancelled by operation of law on the two-year anniversary
of its expiration without an opportunity for a formal hearing. If
a registration is cancelled pursuant to this subsection, the registration
may not be reinstated. In order to obtain a new certificate of registration,
a person whose registration was cancelled pursuant to this subsection
must:
(1) submit an application for registration and satisfy
all requirements for registration pursuant to §5.31 of this title
(relating to Registration by Examination), including the successful
completion of the registration examination;
(2) submit an application for registration by reciprocal
transfer and satisfy all requirements for registration by reciprocal
transfer pursuant to §5.32 of this title (relating to Registration
by Reciprocal Transfer); or
(3) submit an application for registration and demonstrate
