Do South Dakota esthetician licenses expire on the same date every year?

In South Dakota, esthetician licenses do not all expire on the same date each year. Instead, the expiration dates vary based on when an individual esthetician was initially licensed. This means that if an esthetician was licensed at different times throughout the year, their expiration dates will align with their specific initial licensing date. This practice helps to stagger license renewals and allows for a more manageable process for both the regulatory body and the licensed professionals.

Understanding that licenses can have different expiration dates based on the initial licensure is important for estheticians to maintain their licensure status and ensure they are complying with state regulations. This knowledge reinforces the necessity for each esthetician to be aware of their personal license expiration date and the renewal process to avoid any lapses in their ability to practice legally.
