35 Pa. Stat. § 6700-307

Current through Pa Acts 2024-53, 2024-56 through 2024-111
Section 6700-307 - Reciprocal registration

Whenever the department determines that another state or jurisdiction has requirements equivalent to or higher than those in effect pursuant to this act and that such state or jurisdiction has a program equivalent to or stricter than the program for determining whether applicants to this act are qualified as a hearing aid dealer or fitter, the secretary may issue certificates of endorsement to applicants who hold current, unsuspended and unrevoked certificates or licenses to sell or fit and sell hearing aids in such other state or jurisdiction. No such applicants for certificate of endorsement shall be required to submit to or undergo a qualifying examination or requirements other than the payment of fees. The holder of a certificate of endorsement shall be registered in the same manner as registrants. The fee for an initial certificate of endorsement shall be the same as the fee for an initial registration certificate. Fees, grounds for renewal and procedures for the suspension and revocation of certificates of endorsement shall be the same as for renewal, suspension and revocation of a registration certificate. Such reciprocity provision shall not, however, apply where the state or jurisdiction of the individuals seeking such certificate of endorsement does not extend like reciprocity to an individual registered by this Commonwealth under this act.
