CRNA licensure is renewed concurrently with the RN license upon evidence of NBCRNA recertification (ARSD 20:48:05:06). A license not renewed by expiration is placed on lapsed status and must be reinstated before the holder may resume practice; reinstatement costs the renewal fee plus a $50 charge. Practicing on a lapsed license is illegal under SDCL 36-9-49, 36-9-68, and 36-9-71, and can trigger a Board administrative fine of up to $300 depending on days lapsed.Verify with board
