In light of the current situation, the following temporary relaxation measures have been issued by BIS:
- For all renewal licences due during and 30 days after the lock down period –
- Deferment may be allowed until 30 days after the lock down is lifted
- A submission of a late fee with renewal application within 90 days may be allowed with certain provisions
- For all licenses that are to expire within the 90 day deferment period –
- Deferment of the license beyond 90 days may be allowed until 30 days after the lock down is lifted.
