Grace period

No fixed grace period. A license not renewed may be reinstated upon payment of past-due renewal fees plus an additional administrative fee and proof of required CE (NDCC 43-06-13(5); 17-02-01-13); no renewal is possible after a continuous two-year lapse (reapplication required). Inactive status may be elected by September 1; reactivation requires 20 hours of CE in the last 12 months plus a fee.

North Dakota chiropractors must complete a minimum of 20 hours of approved continuing chiropractic education per year (NDAC 17-03-02-01(1)). Every three years, 3 hours must be professional boundary study, counted within that year's 20 hours (reduced from 4 hours effective January 1, 2021). UNCONFIRMED: the rule does not state whether CE is required during the partial first year for licenses issued after July 1 that are automatically renewed the following September 1 (17-02-01-13(1)).
