What must a holder of an expired license do to obtain a new license?

To obtain a new license after holding an expired one, the holder must pay all fees and meet all requirements for a new license. This process ensures that the individual is compliant with the latest professional standards and regulations set by the licensing authority. It reflects the importance of maintaining credibility in the profession and ensuring that all practitioners are current with their training, knowledge, and skills.

Renewal or reinstatement processes commonly entail more than just a simple application; they often also require fulfilling continuing education requirements or demonstrating active practice within a specified timeframe. By requiring all fees to be paid and all licensing prerequisites met, the system upholds the integrity of the profession, ensuring that only qualified individuals are authorized to practice.

Other options suggest either a lack of fees or a minimal requirement which does not align with standard regulatory practices for maintaining licensure. Such simplifications might overlook the necessary steps and commitments needed to ensure that embalmers are adequately prepared to serve the public with the highest standards of care.
