He shall also prove that the state concerned grants a similar kind of license to persons holding licenses issued by the Board in accordance with our statute. The applicant shall pay the corresponding fees as prescribed by § 245 of this title and shall meet the other requirements under the law and regulations that the Board may promulgate.
