Formula

Grand Total = (Base Fee × N) + (Late Penalty × N) + (Exam Fee × N)

  • Base Fee = License fee for the selected type and class (new or renewal rate)
  • Late Penalty = max(Renewal Fee × 0.50, $25.00) per license — applies only to late renewals
  • Exam Fee = $82 (trades) or $55 (general contractor) per individual — applies only when exam is selected
  • N = Number of licenses / individuals

Example: A business renewing 3 Master Electrician licenses late:
Base = $75 × 3 = $225 | Late Penalty = $37.50 × 3 = $112.50 | Total = $337.50
