What action results in the permanent removal of a license?

The permanent removal of a license is referred to as revocation. When a license is revoked, it signifies that the individual is no longer legally allowed to engage in activities that require that specific license. Revocation typically occurs due to serious violations of laws or regulations governing the profession or industry.

Unlike suspension, which is a temporary measure, revocation does not have a defined end and means that the individual must go through a formal process to regain their license, if possible. Termination and cancellation of a license can also indicate the end of the license, but they generally imply that the license could potentially be reinstated or is not in active status anymore, whereas revocation is more severe and indicates a complete and permanent loss of licensure.

Understanding the distinction between these terms is crucial for appreciating the severity of the consequences tied to different license actions in the context of property regulations and laws.
