Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 37, § 3088. Issuance and renewal of licenses; reciprocity

A. The board shall issue a license to any person who meets the requirements of this Chapter and upon payment of the required license fee.

B. Licenses granted under this Chapter shall be subject to annual renewal and shall expire unless renewed in a manner as prescribed by the board.

C. The board may provide for the late renewal of a license but no late renewal shall be granted more than one year after its expiration without payment of all fees in arrears.

D. A suspended license shall be subject to expiration and may be renewed as provided in this Section, but such renewal shall not entitle the licensee, while the license remains suspended and until it is reinstated, to engage in the licensed activity, or in any other conduct or activity in violation of the order of judgment by which the license was suspended.

E. A license revoked on disciplinary grounds may be reinstated in a manner as provided by the board. As a condition of reinstatement, the licensee shall pay the renewal fee and any late fee that may be applicable.

F. The board may grant a license to any person who presents proof of current licensure as a dietitian or nutritionist in another state, the District of Columbia, or territory of the United States which requires standards for licensure considered by the board to be equivalent to the requirements for licensure as prescribed in this Chapter.
