Puerto Rico CPA license renewal

Individual CPA

Puerto Rico CPA licenses renew on a triennial cycle. Ley Num. 293 de 1945, Seccion 6 (20 L.P.R.A. 779) fixes the deadline directly: the Board issues a 3-year license, and every license expires December 1 of the third year following the year it was issued, renewable for additional 3-year terms. The CPE reporting period runs August 1 - July 31 across the 3-year term, and the renewal application/payment window is August 1 - December 1 of the expiration year (with a documented option to request an extension to December 31 for outstanding CPE).
