The Texas Commission of Licensing and Regulation (Governing Body of the TDLR) recently voted to reduce 21 licensing and regulation fees in 8 of the TDLR programs. The reductions of fees are expected to exceed $ 1,300,000 annually.

TDLR’s Executive Director, William Kuntz said “We perform an annual review of our licensing fees to ensure that each program covers only the cost of operating it.

Before the lower fees can become effective, TDLR’s rules will have to be amended. Adjustment of rules involving 8 programs will take some time, but TDLR staff will begin modifying the rules immediately.
