Any licensee authorized to practice under this article, undertaking practice for the first time or resuming practice after a voluntary lapse of registration, may commence practice upon mailing to the department the proper application for registration together with the required fee, provided, however, that such practice without actual possession of the certificate of registration is limited to thirty days. Any such licensee whose application for registration is submitted subsequent to the beginning of the registration period applicable to such licensee shall only be required to pay one-half of the fee if the registration period is less than one-half the whole thereof.
