Renewals
URAs must renew their license every two years, and TDI must receive the application and fee prior to the expiration date of the URA’s license. There are two options for renewal application submissions. You may either renew online for the easiest submission, which allows for payment with a credit card, or mail the application and related fee. Note that renewal fees only apply to certified URAs.
