(b) The salvage vehicle dealer license may be renewed for an additional period of two years upon timely submission of a renewal application on a form approved by the department with all required information, attachments, and fees. A renewal application is considered "timely" submitted if the renewal application with all required information, attachments, and required fees are received by the department on or before the expiration date of the existing license.

(c) The department will send a written notice of expiration to a salvage vehicle dealer's email address at least 30 days before expiration of a license.

(d) Failure by the department to send written notice under this section does not relieve a license holder from timely renewing a license.

(e) The renewal fee for salvage vehicle dealer is $170.

(f) A license holder may renew an expired license by submitting a renewal application and paying a late renewal fee of $85 in addition to the renewal fee, if 90 or fewer days have elapsed since the license expired.

(g) A license holder may renew an expired license by submitting a renewal application and paying a late renewal fee of $170 in addition to the renewal fee, if more than 90 days but less than one year has elapsed since the license expired.

(h) If a license has been expired for a period of one year or longer and the department is not in receipt of a renewal application with all required information and attachments, the license holder must apply for a new license in the same manner as an applicant for an initial license.

(i) If the department is not in receipt of a renewal application with all required information and attachments and the applicable renewal fee prior to the cancellation date of the license, a salvage vehicle dealer may not engage in the activities that require the license until the license has been renewed by the department.
