California requires a repair shop to hold a state licence or registration: the Bureau of Automotive Repair issues it under Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 9884.6, and it is not collision-specific: the same credential covers general repair. That is the state credential behind the El Dorado County numbers above; the register is the fourteen states that license body shops.
What a delinquent registration means
A delinquent status on the BAR register means the shop's registration renewal has lapsed in the state's records. El Dorado County currently shows 26 of them.
