If you do not renew your registration by the registration expiry date, you will no longer be registered with the College and will become a “former” registrant. This means that you will not be a registered pharmacist or pharmacy technician in BC, you will not be allowed to practice pharmacy in BC and your access to PharmaNet will be terminated. If you are also a manager of a pharmacy, your pharmacy licence will be cancelled. If you wish to become a registrant again, you will have to complete the reinstatement process applicable to your registration class (pharmacist or pharmacy technician) and pay applicable fees.
The specific reinstatement requirement depends on the time period lapsed between your registration expiry date and the time you apply for full registration. Your Continuing Education submissions for reinstatement will require up to 5 business days to review; you will be advised via email of their status, or if additional information is required. More information can be found here.
