Within how many hours must a licensee display their license certification in their principal office?

The requirement is for a licensee to display their license certification in their principal office within 72 hours. This time frame ensures that the license is visibly available to clients and regulatory bodies, affirming that the investigator is legally authorized to operate. Having the license on display not only fosters trust with clients but also helps law enforcement and regulatory agencies easily verify the investigator's credentials. The 72-hour window provides a reasonable amount of time for a licensee to prepare their office space following licensure without being overly burdensome. This timeframe is crucial for maintaining professionalism and accountability in the investigative field.
