The Board may not renew a license until the Comptroller of Maryland has verified that the individual has paid all undisputed taxes and unemployment insurance contributions, or arranged for repayment, as required by COMAR 10.31.02. A licensee shall renew the license every 2 years, on or before July 1 of the renewal year. The Board shall send each licensee a renewal notice that states the: Date on which the current license expires; Latest date by which the renewal application and documentation can be received by the Board in order for the renewal license to be issued before the current license expires; and Amount of the renewal fee as specified in COMAR 10.28.07.02. At least 30 days before the current license or registration expires, the Board shall send the renewal notice by electronic means or first-class mail to the last known electronic or physical address of the licensee. The failure to receive a renewal notice does not excuse a licensee from complying with §B of this regulation. Licensees shall satisfactorily complete the minimum continuing education requirements set forth under COMAR 10.28.02. After the expiration date of the license, the optometrist is no longer licensed to practice optometry in the State.
