(4) A representative's registration is effective upon the department's approval of the application. All registrations expire on September 30 of each year. (5) A representative seeking registration renewal shall submit an electronic renewal application and the vendor representative registration fee on or before September 1 of each year. (6) The department shall cancel the registration of a vendor's representative if requested in writing by the vendor. (7) The annual registration fee for each applicant is $50. This fee must be paid when the applicant first seeks approval to represent a vendor and upon each renewal of the registration thereafter.
