2. A pardon granted by the Board shall be deemed to be a full, unconditional pardon unless the official document issued pursuant to subsection 3 explicitly limits the restoration of the civil rights of the person or does not relieve the person of all disabilities incurred upon conviction.
3. Upon being granted a pardon by the Board, a person so pardoned must be given an official document which provides that the person has been granted a pardon.

A person must not be required to pay a fee to receive such an order.
