Such registration shall be on an annual basis. The secretary of state shall provide the form for registration which shall include the name and address of the registrant and the lists described in Subsection C of this section which such registrant desires to receive. A registration shall not be completed until the form provided is properly completed and received by the secretary of state accompanied by the proper registration fee.
