SEC. 73-33-7. Expenses, how paid; certificate fees.
The Mississippi State Board of Public Accountancy shall be authorized to charge each applicant for a certificate a fee in such amount as to be determined by the board, the same to be paid when the application is filed.
On or before January 1 of each year hereafter, each holder of a certificate issued by the Mississippi State Board of Public Accountancy shall register with the Mississippi State Board of Public Accountancy, and shall pay a reasonable annual registration fee in such amount as to be determined by the board. If any certified public accountant fails to register and pay the annual registration fee, on or before January 1, notice of such default shall be sent to him by registered mail to his last known address as shown by the records of said board. The certificate of any certified public accountant who fails to register and pay the annual registration fee within ten (10) days after notice is given, as herein provided, shall be automatically cancelled, and the board shall enter the cancellation on its records.
Any person who has lost his certificate or license to practice in this state by failure to register and pay the annual registration fee, may be again certified or licensed to practice by said board without reexamination, provided such person shall again comply with the requirements of this chapter, file application for registration and pay all fees due said board according to law.
Out of the funds collected under this chapter shall be paid the expenses of the members of the board, including mileage, hotel expenses and per diem compensation as provided in Section 25-3-69, for the time expended in carrying out the duties of the office; provided, however, no expense incurred by said board shall ever be charged against the funds of the state in excess of amounts collected under this section.
