About each permit

Veterinary Facility License

Under 16.25.7.8 NMAC (effective 14 January 2025), every facility in New Mexico where the practice of veterinary medicine regularly occurs must hold a facility license from the Board of Veterinary Medicine, separate from the individual veterinarian's license, and a facility license cannot be issued without a physical facility. All facility licenses expire, and renewals are due, on 30 September each year. Section 16.25.7.9 sets the initial facility license at $155 and annual renewal at $155, with late renewal penalties of $65 for a renewal postmarked after 30 September but no later than 30 October and $155 after 30 October. A consulting-only veterinarian with no hands-on practice, a veterinarian practising under a 60-day temporary permit, and a veterinarian working under another licensee's jurisdiction do not need their own facility license.
