Subject to the annual fee provisions as provided herein, every certificate of authority issued to a fraternal benefit society shall be for an indefinite term and shall expire with the expiration or termination of the corporate existence of the holder thereof unless sooner revoked by the commissioner. The commissioner shall require the payment of seven thousand fifty-five dollars ($7,055), in advance, as a fee for filing an application for each original certificate of authority authorizing any fraternal benefit society to transact insurance in this state. Each society possessing a certificate of authority of indefinite term shall owe and pay an annual fee of four hundred twenty-four dollars ($424), in advance, on account of that certificate until its final expiration or revocation. That fee shall be for annual periods commencing on July 1 of each year, and ending on June 30 of each year, and shall be due on each March 1 and shall be delinquent on and after each April 1. A duly certified copy or duplicate of the certificate of authority shall be prima facie evidence that the holder is a fraternal benefit society within the meaning of this chapter.
(Amended by Stats. 2017, Ch. 534, Sec. 66. (AB 1699) Effective January 1, 2018.)
