If the Registered Professional’s registration is cancelled due to non-payment of his/her annual fee in terms of Section 20(1)(a)(iii), the Registered Professional must apply for re-registration and may not practice his/her profession until he/her has been re-registered.

Such Registered Professional must accrue and claim at least two penalty CPD points from Category 1, within 12 months of reregistration. These points are required in addition to  the points normally required per annum.

This implies that a Registered Professional who re-registers, after his/her registration has been cancelled due to non-payment, will be required to claim a total of 27 CPD points during the particular CPD cycle.

A total of seven of these points must be claimed in Category 1.

The review period is typically 4–8 weeks.

All SACAP’s applications are done online (from the website at www.sacapsa.com).
