Mississippi SB2725 establishes legacy pawnbroker status for existing businesses and outlines licensing processes for new and transitioning.
Mississippi SB2725 defines pawnbroker businesses holding a license at the effective date as "legacy pawnbrokers." These businesses will have their licenses internally renewed annually by the Mississippi Department of Consumer Finance without needing to reapply. Pawnbroker businesses established after the act's effective date must apply for a license through the standard process. If a legacy pawnbroker business is sold or transferred, the new owner must apply for a new license.
