§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).
