Mo. Rev. Stat. § 324.252

A license shall not be transferable or assignable. When a massage business is sold or ownership or management is transferred, or the corporate legal organization status is substantially changed, the license of the massage business shall be voided and a new license obtained. Application for a new license shall be made to the board in writing, at least ninety days prior to the effective date of the sale, transfer, or change in corporate status. The application for a new license shall be on the same form, containing the same information required for an original license, and shall be accompanied by a license fee to be determined by the board. The board may issue a temporary operating permit to continue the operation of the massage business for a period of up to ninety days pending the survey inspection and the final disposition of the application.
