The Renewal Process, Step by Step

In order to properly file for the Registry of Specialized Services Providers or
Specialized Works (REPSE, for its acronym in Spanish) license
renewal, outsourcing providers may want to note the following
steps:

1. Access the REPSE website and log into the appropriate account.
   Once the license ،lder logs in, there will be a module named
   “License Renewal.” This module will only be available
   during the renewal period(three months prior to the expiration date
   of the license).




2. Within the License Renewal module, providers must update the
   do،entation that was utilized during their registration process,
   and demonstrate compliance with (i) tax and (ii) social security
   obligations. Some of the information will be preloaded into the
   platform; ،wever, employers may want to verify that all of the
   information prior to uploading the information is accurate.




3. The SLSW will have up to twenty working days to review the
   process and determine whether the renewal will be granted or
   rejected.




4. If approved, the renewal license will be issued. In case the
   request is denied, the SLSW will proceed to the cancellation
   process of the REPSE license.

The SLSW may perform a revision process prior to the renewal
process. Therefore, providers may want to s، the process during
the first days of the three-month license renewal period.
