Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
The requirement for a written examination is subject to the following exceptions:
1. An individual who applies for an insurance producer license in this state who was 
previously licensed for the same lines of authority in another state may not be required 
to complete any prelicensing education or examination. This exemption is only 
available if the person is currently licensed in that state or if the application is received 
within ninety days of the cancellation of the applicant's previous license and if the prior 
state issues a certification that, at the time of cancellation, the applicant was in good 
standing in that state or the state's insurance producer database records, maintained 
by the national association of insurance commissioners, its affiliates, or subsidiaries, 
indicate that the insurance producer is or was licensed in good standing for the line of 
authority requested.
2. A person licensed as an insurance producer in another state who moves to this state 
shall make application within ninety days of establishing legal residence in this state to 
become a resident licensee pursuant to section 26.1 -26-13.2. A prelicensing education 
or examination may not be required of that person to obtain any line of authority 
previously held in the prior state unless the commissioner determines otherwise by 
rule.
3. An applicant may be licensed without examination to market a specific product type if 
the commissioner finds by rule the specific product type does not require the same 
professional competency demanded for other product types.
4. An applicant for a license to write only a specific product type may be licensed subject 
to reduced examination requirements if the commissioner finds by rule that the 
requirements for licensure would otherwise be too burdensome and unrelated to that 
specific product type.
