If, within 30 days from the request for additions, the applicant does not provide all the relevant documentation provided by the regulation, including the requested additions, A.N.R.S.C. will return the relevant documentation, cancelling that application from the licensing procedure, communicating this decision to the applicant.

a) to summon, at the A.N.R.S.C. headquarters, the applicant’s authorized representatives, to clarify certain aspects that arise/do not arise from the documentation provided;

b) to check, on site, the accuracy of the data in the documentation transmitted by the applicant.

A.N.R.S.C., through the specialized department, prepares a specialist report which includes the justified proposal for the granting/rejection of the license and which will be presented for analysis to the Licensing Commission, by the commission secretary.

The proposal to grant/reject the license is voted on within the Licensing Commission.

After payment confirmation, A.N.R.S.C. sends the applicant, within a maximum of 5 days, the order of the president of A.N.R.S.C. granting the license, accompanied by the license and its associated conditions.

If the 30-day deadline for payment of the license granting fee is not met, A.N.R.S.C. will proceed to withdraw the license.

In case of refusal to grant the license, A.N.R.S.C. sends the applicant, within a maximum of 5 days from issuance, the order of the president of A.N.R.S.C. rejecting the license, accompanied by the reasons for the refusal.
