How Do I Renew an SDCI Boiler, Conveyance, or Refrigeration Permit?

SDCI considers renewals to be amendments to your existing records. We track them using the initial record number with a numeric suffix. You can find them under the related records for your initial application.

You can only request a renewal of the following types of trade permits within 30 days of when your permit will expire and up to one year after expiration. (For all other permit types, see Renewal Process for SDCI Permits.)

• conveyance
• boiler/pressure vessel
• refrigeration

After you complete your renewal application, your permit will be valid for an additional 18 months after the original expiration date. Only the original contractor or installer that applied for the permit can request this renewal. Contact the original contractor or installer if you need to schedule inspections or need more information about your permit.

Once you have finished all these steps, your original permit record will be renewed. We will send an email to the contacts on the record that will include a link to a printable PDF file of the updated permit.

We will also create a new Renewal Request record. The Renewal Request record shares your original permit number but has a three-digit suffix (i.e. 6941456-CY-001). This is for record keeping purposes only and you do not need to interact with this record.
