The board of directors of a banking institution desiring to establish a branch shall file an application with the Director of the Department of Consumer and Business Services. The application shall be in the form the banking institution is required to file with the Federal Reserve System or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to establish a branch at such location, as the case may be, or in such other form as the director may require. The application shall be accompanied by a $500 fee, which fee shall only apply to the establishment of new branches and not to the acquisition or relocation of existing branches. The director shall promptly advise the banking institution if the application is incomplete or if the director requires additional information.

The director may establish rules regarding temporary branches.
