All licenses issued under this chapter shall expire on December 31 in the year for which the license was issued. No license shall be issued for a longer period than one calendar year, but a license may be renewed without reexamination as provided for in this chapter. However, no license holder will be entitled to renew a license without examination unless an application shall be filed in due form and the proper fee for the renewal paid not later than 30 days after the expiration of the latest license in the Office of the Department of Technical Code Enforcement, but if the application is so filed and the fee is so paid within 30 days from the expiration date of the latest license, then the renewal license shall be granted without examination. No license shall be transferable to any other person, firm, partnership or corporation.
