Ohio Revised Code Title XLVII. Occupations Professions § 4745.02

On or before the thirtieth day prior to the expiration of any license, each licensing agency shall provide a notice for renewal to every licensee for whom a license was issued or renewed during the current license year or other specified period and who has been approved for renewal by the specific licensing agency.

The licensee shall complete the applicable renewal application and pay the applicable renewal fee. Renewal fees paid pursuant to this section shall be deposited with the treasurer of state.

Upon receipt of the correct fee by the treasurer and acceptance of the renewal application by the licensing agency, the applicant shall be entered as currently renewed on the records of the particular licensing agency, and notice of the entry shall be provided to each licensee as soon as practicable, but not later than thirty days after receipt of the application and renewal fee. A certification by the respective licensing agency, with its seal affixed, of those records shall be prima-facie evidence of renewal in all courts in the trial of any case.
