PERMANENT RULES
DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING
[Filed May 9, 2016, 2:20 p.m., effective June 9, 2016]
Effective Date of Rule: Thirty-one days after filing.
Purpose: These proposed rule changes will:
Eliminate the processing fee for name and address changes to allow licensees to submit these changes directly to the department, bypassing the department of revenue, business licensing services step currently required. This should enable the department to process name and address changes within two to three days after receipt of the request from the licensee.
Remove the word "new" from the application fee because this is a one-time fee and is not subject to renewal.
Remove the word "new" from vehicle certificate fee because the original vehicle certificate fee and the renewal vehicle certificate fee are identical.
Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Amending 308-89-060 Fees.
