What happens if a professional engineer misses CE requirements in Arizona, and how the board checks compliance — sourced from the official board.

Under A.R.S. § 32-127, a certificate of registration is invalid after its expiration date unless renewed; late renewal carries a penalty of one-sixth of the renewal fee for each year or fraction of a year of delinquency. The Board cancels a registration that has remained invalid for at least one full renewal period (three years); reissuance after cancellation requires a new application as a candidate, and re-examination may be required after longer lapses. A registrant may not practice, offer to practice, or advertise while the registration is inactive or invalid.Verify with board
