(Appendix K and L provide specific guidance to 31.5 general licensees.)

Fees

Generally licensees subject to registration are required to pay an annual registration fee to the NRC. These fees are explained in our Materials Fee Billing Handbook. Refer to the schedule of materials fees for the fees required for each category of license and each type of fee.

Forms

There is no license application for a general license. A general license is a de facto license based on the possession of generally licensed devices. Forms that are useful for meeting reporting requirements or are required for registration include:

NRC Form 664 Registration of Generally Licensed Devices
NRC Form 483 Registration Certificate -- in Vitro Testing with Byproduct Material under General License
NRC Form 653 Transfers of Industrial Devices Report (Used by vendors of GL devices to report distributions to 31.5 general licensees. Provides information to general licensees on what needs to be in the report.)
