Florida Statutes Title XXXII. Regulation of Professions and Occupations § 475.619. Inactive status

(1) A registration, license, or certification which has become inactive may be renewed upon application to the department. The board shall prescribe by rule continuing education requirements for each year the registration, license, or certification was inactive, as a condition of renewing an inactive registration, license, or certification.

(2) Any registration, license, or certification which has been inactive for more than 4 years shall automatically expire. Once a registration, license, or certification expires, it becomes null and void without any further action by the board or department. Two years prior to the expiration of the registration, license, or certification, the department shall give notice by mail to the registered trainee, licensee, or certificateholder at her or his last known address. The board shall prescribe by rule a fee not to exceed $100 for the late renewal of an inactive registration, license, or certification. The department shall collect the current renewal fee for each renewal period in which the registration, license, or certification was inactive, in addition to any applicable late renewal fee.

(3) The board shall adopt rules relating to inactive registrations, licenses, and certifications and for the renewal of such registrations, licenses, and certifications.
