Or. Admin. Code § 331-480-0015 - License issuance and renewal
The Office will enter all lactation consultant authorization holders and their status into its licensure database, which is available to the public.
(1) Licensure and renewal: A
license is subject to the provisions of OAR Chapter 331, Division 30 regarding
the issuance and renewal of a license, provisions regarding authorization to
practice, identification, and requirements for issuance of a duplicate license.
(2) License renewal: To avoid
delinquency penalties, a license must be renewed before the license becomes
inactive as described in section (3) of this rule. The licensee must:
(a) Submit a renewal application form;
(b) Have obtained and attest to
having obtained the continuing education pursuant to 331-485-0005.

certification.

criminal background check pursuant to OAR 331-030-0004, and
(e) Pay the renewal fee pursuant to OAR
331-475-0010.
(3) Renewal
when a license is inactive: ORS
676.580 defines an "active
authorization" as an authorization that is current and not suspended and an
"inactive authorization" as an authorization that has not been current for
three years or less. An inactive license does not authorize its holder to
practice lactation consultation or use the title or designation of "Lactation
Consultant." To renew an inactive license, the authorization holder must:
(a) Submit a renewal application
form;
(b) Attest to having obtained
the continuing education pursuant to OAR 331-485-0005;
(c) Attest to holding current IBCLC
certification.

criminal background check pursuant to OAR 331-030-0004; and

pursuant to OAR 331-475-0010.
(4) Expired license: A license that has been
inactive for more than three years is expired, and the licensee must reapply
for licensure and meet the requirements listed in OAR 331-480-0005 or
331-480-0010.
