(a) Registration Fees. The registration fee is determined by the Commissioner in an amount not to exceed the maximum amount specified by Finance Code §158.053(b), exclusive of fees charged by NMLS, as described in subsection (b) of this section. The Commissioner may establish different fee amounts for a new registration versus renewal of the registration. The current fee is set in NMLS and posted on SML's website (sml.texas.gov). The Commissioner may change the fee at any time; provided, any fee increase is not effective until notice has been posted on SML's website for at least 30 days. The registration fee must be paid in NMLS.(b) NMLS Fees. NMLS charges a separate fee to process the application. Such fee is determined by NMLS and must be paid by the applicant at the time it files the application. The current fee is set in NMLS and posted on the NMLS website (nationwidelicensingsystem.org).(c) All fees are nonrefundable and nontransferable.
