A. Each license to practice podiatric medicine shall be renewed
by June 30 of even-numbered years. Such license shall entitle the
licensee to practice podiatric medicine in this state as defined by
law and to hold himself/herself out as a licensed podiatric
physician, doctor of podiatric medicine or podiatrist as long as
lawfully renewed, unless suspended or revoked as authorized by law.
B. Upon application and payment of required fees, and upon
first satisfying the Board of Podiatric Medical Examiners that the
licensee is not at the time violating any applicable law or any of
the rules of the Board or the Code of Ethics, and upon showing proof
of compliance with Section 145.1 of this title, a licensee shall be
entitled to have his/her license to practice podiatric medicine
renewed until June 30 of the following even-numbered year.
C. A license not renewed in the time and manner required by
this section shall become inactive and the licensee may not practice
as a licensed podiatric physician, doctor of podiatric medicine or
podiatrist. The license may be renewed on or before September 30
following the June 30 deadline by payment of the delinquent renewal
fee upon satisfying the Board of compliance with subsection B of
this section. After that September 30 and on or before the close of
June 30 of the next even-numbered year, the license may be
reinstated upon satisfying the Board of compliance with subsection B
of this section and upon the payment first of the delinquent renewal
fee, plus such additional penalty as the Board imposes, not to

the Board shall provide to the licensee such certificate of renewal
or reinstatement as the Board shall direct, which shall operate to
renew or reinstate the license, as the case may be, until June 30 of

record showing each license issued by the Board, the name and last
mailing address furnished to said secretary-treasurer by each
licensee, the year of issuance of the license, whether by
examination or otherwise, the renewals, reinstatements, suspensions
and revocations thereof, and the fact as to whether the license be
in force or suspended or void. Such record as to any license, or a
copy thereof certified to by said secretary-treasurer as complete
and true as to the license in question, shall constitute prima facie
evidence of the recitals therein and the fact disclosed thereby as
to whether the license described is in force or suspended or void.
