§237D-4.5  Certificate of registration for transient accommodations broker, travel agency, and tour packager.  (a) Each transient accommodations broker, travel agency, or tour packager, as a condition precedent to entering into an arrangement to furnish transient accommodations at noncommissioned negotiated contract rates, shall register with the director.  The transient accommodations broker, travel agency, or tour packager shall make a one-time payment of $15 for each registration, upon receipt of which the director shall issue a certificate of registration in a form as the director determines, attesting that the registration has been made.  The registration shall not be transferable and shall be valid only for the transient accommodations broker, travel agency, or tour packager in whose name it is issued.

     The registration shall be effective until canceled in writing.  Any application for the reissuance of a previously canceled registration identification number shall be regarded as a new application for registration and shall be subject to the payment of the one-time registration fee.  The director may revoke or cancel any registration issued under this section for cause, as provided by rule under chapter 91.

     (b)  Any person who enters into an agreement to furnish transient accommodations without registering in conformity with this section shall be subject to the citation process and monetary fines under section 237D-4(d) and (g). [L 2018, c 211, §1; am L 2021, c 90, §5]
