Section 17-81-311 - Renewal - Fee(a)(1) The Arkansas State Board of Chiropractic Examiners may charge an annual renewal fee not to exceed three hundred dollars ($300) for the license. However, in its discretion, the board may set the renewal fee for license holders not practicing in this state, or for those inactive, at a lower fee than for those practicing in this state.(2) The board may waive the renewal fee for all licentiates who are serving in the armed services at the time the fee is due.(b) If the license renewal fee is not paid by January 1 of each year or within sixty (60) days from the mailing of notice by the board, whichever is the later date, the license shall automatically expire and be forfeited. The license can only be reinstated upon payment of all sums due, and, in its discretion, the board may assess the delinquent holder an additional sum as a penalty.(c) A renewal fee will be considered "paid" pursuant to this section if it is received in the board office or postmarked on or before the date the fee is due. If a license expires and is forfeited because the renewal fee is not paid on time, the license may be reinstated upon payment of the delinquent fee due, payment of a penalty of two hundred dollars ($200), and complying with the continuing education requirements of § 17-81-312.(d) Failure of the licensee to receive the renewal form shall not relieve him or her of the duty to renew his or her license and pay the fee required by this chapter.Acts 1971, No. 706, § 11; 1983, No. 504, § 2; A.S.A. 1947, § 72-425; Acts 1987, No. 354, § 8; 1989 (3rd Ex.
