Who is required to notify the Registrar of contractors about disassociation?

The requirement for both the licensee and the qualifying party to notify the Registrar of Contractors about disassociation is rooted in the regulations governing contractor licenses in Arizona. This regulation is important because it ensures that the managerial and technical responsibilities associated with a contractor's license are appropriately managed and that all parties involved in the licensing agreement are up to date on any changes.

The licensee is the entity that holds the contractor's license, while the qualifying party is typically an individual who meets the necessary qualifications, such as experience or education, to act on behalf of the licensee. If disassociation occurs, whether due to resignations, terminations, or other circumstances, it is crucial for both parties to provide timely notifications to maintain compliance with state regulations and avoid potential penalties or issues with the contractor's license.

This dual requirement underscores the importance of collaboration between the licensee and the qualifying party, as both have a vested interest in ensuring that the licensing records accurately reflect their current status and that they meet state requirements effectively.
