PURPOSE: This rule clarifies and qualifies who may obtain a nonresident certificate or license and the condition for renewal.

1. (1) A nonresident person seeking a certificate or license to engage in the real estate appraisal business in Missouri first shall apply for an appropriate certificate or license on a form provided by the commission and shall sign the application before a notary public and submit the same with the required fee to the commission.
2. (2) The commission may issue a certificate or license to an individual who is certified or licensed in his/her state of domicile, provided the commission is furnished verification that the appraiser is in good standing with his/her state of domicile and any other state that he/she has held licensure or certification. An individual applicant for a certificate or license who is not certified or licensed in his/her state of domicile may be granted a certificate or license upon meeting all requirements of a resident for that certificate or license.
3. (3) After certification or licensure, a nonresident licensee shall be subject to and shall comply with all provisions of the license law and these regulations.
4. (4) The commission may exempt the examination, application process, application and/or fees, as prescribed by the certification or licensure law a nonresident individual duly certified or licensed in any other state under the laws of which a similar exemption is extended to licensees of Missouri, provided a written agreement for reciprocal certification or licensure exists between the licensing authorities of the states involved. A nonresident applicant may petition the commission to waive the examination when a written agreement for reciprocal certification or licensure does not exist between Missouri and the nonresident’s state of domicile. A nonresident applicant must provide the commission with a letter from the licensing authority of his/her state of domicile indicating that the nonresident applicant successfully passed an examination approved by the Appraisal Qualifications Board of the Appraisal Foundation.
