UCI CYCLING REGULATIONS   Article 14.  The RA is responsible for keeping this insurance policy continuously up to date in respect  of any changes of the total of contracts achieved, the implementation of guarantees and  obligations incumbent on the RA and the policy's renewal on expiry.   Article 15. In the event of the non-respect of Article 14, the RA is liable to sanctions imposed by the  UCI, in accordance with these regulations.   Article 16. The candidate must send the National Federation the certificate issued by the UCI  together with a copy of the civil liability insurance policy and any amendments.   Article 17. Upon the receipt of these documents and any other documents required by the National  Federation, the latter may issue a UCI riders' agent licence, subject to article  1.1.006 bis 3) of the UCI Regulations and any other relevant provision. The riders' agent  licence issued by the National Federation shall be valid for a calendar year (1 January  to 31 December of the same year) or - if issued during the season - the licence shall be  valid until the end of that calendar year (31 December).   Article 18. The National Federation is solely responsible for checking compliance with regulatory  and legal requirements, in particular with regard to civil liability insurance, both on the  award of the licence and throughout the period of its validity.  Article 19. National federations shall inform the UCI of all UCI riders' agent licences issued. In the  event of failings by a National Federation in respect of its obligations under these  Regulations, the UCI may forward the case to the Disciplinary Commission.   Article 20. On the basis of the licence issued by his/her National Federation, and subject to  additional conditions that may be imposed in accordance with national legislation, a UCI  licensed RA may conduct activities around the world. The certificate issued by the UCI to successful candidates shall be valid for four years  from 1 January following the date of issue. The certificate holder may submit a request  to the UCI for renewal of the certificate for a further period of four years. The request  must be submitted before the current certificate’s expiration date and the renewal is  delivered after examination of the riders’ agent’s activities during the last four years.  Once the new certificate has been issued, the RA can request a renewal of his/her  licence from the National Federation.  (text modified on 1.01.15).  If an agent's file is incomplete, the UCI shall inform the National Federation and set a  deadline for the situation to be resolved. If the file is still incomplete upon the expiry of  the deadline, the UCI can require the permanent withdrawal of the RA licence by the  Federation.  In order to carry out checks, the UCI reserves the right to request the Federation for a  copy of the complete file on the award of an RA licence at any time comprising, in  particular, copies of the civil liability insurance policy. The Federation is obliged to provide  this documentation within 10 days. (text modified on 25.06.19).
