HOW TO REINSTATE A NULL AND VOID FLORIDA COSMETOLOGY LICENSE

Did you miss your cosmetology license renewal deadline? Has your license now lapsed to null and void status? A license becomes “null and void” when a licensee fails to renew for two consecutive licensure cycles. However, you may qualify to reinstate your license if you failed to renew by the deadline due to health problems or financial hardship.

Application requirements include the following:

ILLNESS OR ECONOMIC HARDSHIP STANDARD
To reinstate your license, you must show that you failed to renew your license because of illness or economic hardship. Details matter. Include all the facts that support your claim in your Application for License/ Registration from Null and Void Form # DBPR COSMO 7.
