Georgia Code § 43-50-42 - Issuance and Renewal of Temporary License by Board

(a) The board may issue a temporary license to the following applicants who are qualified to take the veterinary license examination:

(1) An applicant licensed in another state. Such license shall have the same force and effect as a permanent license until the time of its expiration; and

(2) An applicant who is not the holder of any veterinary license. Such license shall authorize the applicant to work under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian as provided by the board.

(b) The temporary license shall expire on the date that permanent licenses are issued to persons who have passed the examination provided for in Code Section 43-50-32, which examination occurred immediately following the issuance of the temporary license.

(c) A temporary license issued pursuant to this Code section may, in the discretion of the board, be renewed for one six-month period only; provided, however, that no temporary license shall be issued, renewed, or reissued to a person who fails to pass the examination established by the board.
