Before practicing embalming or funeral directing or operating a funeral establishment, certain fees are due. The commission sets fees in amounts reasonable and necessary to cover administrative costs.
Penalties for late renewal for funeral establishments are determined by rule. If a license is expired over 30 days, an establishment may not operate until renewal and all late penalties are paid.
An administrative penalty may be assessed for violations by funeral service establishments between $100 and $5,000 per violation (collected under revenue object 3770).
Initial license or registration fee increased by $5 and renewal by $1, effective September 1, 2003.
Annually, the commission may adopt staggered renewal system.
