Expired certificates are suspended. Late renewal within 6 months of expiration: CID/PSI publishes a $25 late fee; State law (NMSA 60-13-39(C)) allows a late fee up to twice the renewal fee (about $150), so budget for the higher amount if billed.

License is suspended if not renewed by the expiration date. Late fee per CID/PSI: about $1 per day for days 1-30, then an amount equal to one year's fee for days 30-90; after 90 days the license is cancelled. State law (NMSA 60-13-18(G)) allows about $1 per day up to 30 days and thereafter twice the renewal fee, so the amount billed can be higher than the PSI figure.
Reinstatement: Show the details (amounts are approximate)
Not renewed within 3 months (90 days) after expiration: the license is cancelled and a new application is required. Reinstatement after suspension or revocation for discipline requires payment of all fees and administrative penalties (14.6.3.9 NMAC).

Fees change. Check the official site for the exact amount.

Why approximate?

Boards change fees often and some charge extra processing fees. We show a recent amount so you can plan.

Bond: Required: $10,000. Verify the amount with the board.
Insurance: Workers' compensation insurance is required of all licensees (proof is filed with the NM Workers' Compensation Administration, not CID). A $10,000 contractor license code bond from a NM-authorized surety must cover the entire license term; renew with a new bond or continuation certificate covering the full 3-year term. No general liability minimum is set in 14.6.3 NMAC.

Notes

The statute sets a 2-year default "or as determined by the division"; the division applies 3 years. Renewal fee $300 per 3-year term: $300 for GB-2, GB-98, GA-98, GF-98, EE-98, MM-98; the maximum for multiple classifications within one category is $300. Fee schedule matches 14.5.5.8 NMAC ($100/yr or $50/yr). Renewal requires: complete form signed by an authorized person and each qualifying party, notarized with same-date signatures, fee payable to PSI, bond/continuation certificate for the full 3-year term, and a self-addressed stamped envelope, mailed or hand-delivered to PSI, 9550 San Mateo Blvd NE, Suite F, Albuquerque, NM 87113, (877) 663-9267. There is no online renewal. Corporations/LLCs with a DBA must update the Secretary of State registration before renewal. Contractors working on manufactured homes must also register with the Manufactured Housing Division.

Deadline rule: All commercial, public and noncommercial licenses expire January 31 of the following year (annual renewal). Earn CEUs before expiration.

Notes

NMDA publishes a $100 commercial applicator fee and $75 operator/technician fee (statutory caps in NMSA 76-4-22); the older text of 21.17.50.25 NMAC still shows $75 / $50 and a December 31 expiration, so the NMDA-published figures are used. Pest control is licensed by the NM Department of Agriculture, not RLD. A separate business-level pest control license fee is not published on the NMDA pages reviewed. Service vehicles must show the firm name and applicator license number.
