Whenever the board determines that another state or jurisdiction has requirements for the licensing of persons to engage in the practice of dealing in or fitting of hearing aids, which requirements meet the minimum requirements and standards set forth in this article and the rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to this article, the board may, in the manner prescribed by its rules and regulations, issue a license without the examination required by this article, to any person holding a license in such other state or jurisdiction, upon application, providing such prospective licensee meets all of the requirements set forth in this article and the rules and regulations of the board with respect thereto. All of the fees which such prospective licensee would be otherwise required to pay, shall be paid by such prospective licensee in the same manner and to the same extent as if such prospective licensee were not qualified to engage in such other state or jurisdiction.
