Seafood dealer license; license fee for applicants holding other seafood licenses revised; retroactive effect provided

HB 39 lowers the fee for Alabama residents who already hold specific seafood licenses (such as fishing or processing permits) from $465 to $265 for a seafood dealer license. This applies to license holders under Sections 9-12-82, 9-12-87, 9-12-93, 9-12-113, or 9-12-124. The bill makes this reduced fee retroactive, covering licenses issued on or after October 1, 2025. It directly affects existing seafood dealers with qualifying licenses by reducing their annual licensing cost without changing the requirement to hold a license.
