Any individual licensee who represents an agency or acts on its behalf must have their individual license associated with the agency's license with an affiliation.
Adding, maintaining and renewing affiliations
To add new affiliations, the business entity needs to log into the agency's license account. There is a $20 fee for each new affiliation.
An affiliation is good from its effective date until the next expiry date of the business-entity license, or when the affiliated individual license becomes inactive.
Business-entity licensees need to renew affiliations as part of their license renewal.
Terminating affiliations
To cancel an existing affiliation, the business entity needs to log into the agency's license account. There is no fee to cancel an affiliation.
If a business entity will not terminate an affiliation record, an individual licensee can submit a request to our office to cancel it. The individual licensee must address a postal letter, fax or email to the affiliating authority, carbon copying the Office of the Insurance Commissioner.
Designated responsible licensed person (DRLP)
Business-entity licensees must provide a designated responsible licensed person (DRLP) to maintain an insurance license. Because the DRLP is a representative of the business entity, the DRLP should also be affiliated with the agency's license.
