(a) A multi-peril crop insurance adjuster who allows the adjuster's license to lapse may , within twelve (12) months from the date of expiration, be issued a new multi-peril crop insurance adjuster license upon the commissioner's receipt of the request for renewal. However, a lapsed license fee in the amount of double the unpaid renewal fee shall be required, and the license shall be subject to any other penalties as provided by law, before the license will be renewed.

If the person applies for reinstatement more than one (1) year from date of lapse, the person shall reapply for the license under this part.
