(1) apply for reinstatement to the commissioner no later than two years after the effective date of the revocation;

(2) pay a $100 reinstatement application fee and any applicable renewal license fee; and

Subd. 2.Reinstatement after suspension.

If a license is suspended, then, in order to have the license reinstated, the person who holds the suspended license must:

(1) apply for reinstatement to the commissioner no later than two years after the completion of the suspension period;

(2) pay a $100 reinstatement application fee and any applicable renewal license fee; and
