(2) The director may issue a permit to a credit union chartered in another state to operate in this state in a manner consistent with the Idaho credit union act, provided that the credit union applies for such permit on a form approved by the director and has approval from the regulator of credit unions in its home state to operate in Idaho.

The credit union for which Idaho is a host state shall maintain its books and records in Idaho or in such other place as the director may agree in writing.
