Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 14, July 15, 2024
PURPOSE: This rule establishes licensing change
				  requirements for all barber and cosmetology establishments.
(1) Original Licensure. An establishment
				license shall only be valid for the owners, address, and name provided for the
				establishment in the initial establishment license application. The initial
				establishment license holder shall retain establishment ownership and
				responsibility for ensuring that the establishment is operated according to all
				applicable provisions of Chapter 328, RSMo, (for barbering) and Chapter 329,
				RSMo, (for cosmetology) and the regulations of the board.
(2) Change of Location or Ownership. If at
				any time during the license period the establishment location, name, and/or
				ownership changes, the owner(s) of the establishment shall submit an
				application for a new establishment license to the board within forty-five (45)
				days after the ownership or location change and the applicable change of
				location and/or ownership fee. The original license of the establishment shall
				become void as to the new location and/or new owners upon expiration of the
				forty-five (45)-day period and shall be returned to the board. No barber or
				cosmetology services shall be performed or offered to be performed under the
				new ownership or at the new location after the forty-five (45)-day period
				expires until the establishment is issued a license by the board for the new
				owners and/or new location.
(A) New
				Ownership. It is the responsibility of the new owner(s) to submit the
				establishment application to the board accompanied by the change of ownership
				fee.
(B) Adding a Co-Owner. It
				shall be the responsibility of the co-owners to submit the establishment
				location to the board accompanied by the applicable fee.
(C) Deleting a Co-Owner. If a co-owner(s)
				ceases ownership of an establishment, it shall be the responsibility of the
				establishment's remaining owner(s) to notify the board of this change in
				writing. The written notice shall serve as documentation of the change and a
				new application shall not be required.
(D) A corporation is considered by law to be
				a separate person. If a corporation owns an establishment, it is not necessary
				to obtain a new establishment license or to file an amended application for an
				establishment license if the owners of the stock change. However, as a separate
				person, if a corporation begins ownership of an establishment or ceases
				ownership of an establishment, a new establishment license must be obtained
				regardless of the relationship of the previous or subsequent owner to the
				corporation.
(E) An establishment
				license shall not be issued until the establishment passes a board inspection,
				the establishment is in compliance with all applicable sanitation rules and the
				application is approved by the board.
