C.R.S. § 10-14-603: Annual certificate of authority.

Societies that are authorized to transact business in this state as of July 1, 1993, and all societies authorized thereafter, may continue such business until June 30, 1994. The authority of all such societies may thereafter be renewed annually but shall terminate on the last day of the succeeding June. However, a certificate of authority so issued shall continue in full force and effect unless specifically terminated. For each such certificate of authority or renewal the society shall pay to the division of insurance fees as prescribed pursuant to sections 10-3-207 and 24-31-104.5, C.R.S. A duly certified copy or duplicate of such certificate of authority shall be prima facie evidence that the society is a fraternal benefit society within the meaning of this article.
