(a) The Arkansas State Board of Pharmacy, in its discretion, may license as a pharmacist, through the process of reciprocity as established by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy, any person who is duly licensed in some other state, territory, or the District of Columbia if the territory, state, or the District of Columbia has the same general requirements for licensure as Arkansas at the time of original licensure, provided that the state, territory, or the District of Columbia in which the person is licensed shall, under like conditions, grant reciprocal licensure to a pharmacist duly licensed by examination in this state.
(b) All applications for a reciprocal license shall be accompanied by the fee prescribed by § 17-92-108.
(c)
(1) In the interim between sessions of the board and upon satisfactory evidence of the fitness as established by board rule of an applicant for reciprocity, any member of the board, in his or her discretion, may issue a temporary certificate that shall authorize the holder to practice pharmacy as defined in § 17-92-101.
(2) The temporary certificate shall expire on the date of the next meeting of the board after the granting of the certificate whether that meeting is a regular meeting or a called meeting at which reciprocity is considered.
