Portable Electronics Vendor/Agent License Application: Individual

The following are requirements for an individual applying to become a portable electronics insurance vendor. The requirements apply to both Arizona residents and residents of other states ("nonresidents") except as otherwise noted:

NOT EVERYONE QUALIFIES FOR AN INSURANCE LICENSE

The Department can deny a license for any cause listed in Arizona Revised Statutes ("ARS") § 20-295. You should review this statute before deciding to spend the time, effort and money (fees are nonrefundable) to apply for a license. If you apply for a license, you must truthfully and completely answer questions asked on the application, and you may need to provide additional documentation.

MEET THE MINIMUM AGE REQUIREMENT

You must be at least 18 years old.

PROVIDE PROOF OF LAWFUL PRESENCE IN THE UNITED STATES

An Arizona resident that does not already hold an Arizona insurance license (or an individual who has not already submitted evidence pursuant to obtaining an Arizona insurance license) must submit Form L-152 (ARS § 41-1080) with one of the required forms of identification.  This form is not necessary if your fingerprints were submitted to the department electronically. 

PAY REQUIRED (NON-REFUNDABLE) FEE

LICENSE FEE
NON-REFUNDABLE
$120.00
  • You can pay with a credit card if you submit your application online through the National Insurance Producer Registry.
  • You can pay by check or money order, made payable to "Insurance Licensing Section" if you send or deliver your payment with your license application and other required materials to the Department of Insurance.

SUBMIT A LICENSE APPLICATION

 

Submit your license application (Form L-LTD).

AFTER WE HAVE REVIEWED YOUR APPLICATION...

We will review your application and you will receive one of the following:

  • A notice telling you that your application was approved.  Use License Search to view your license on our web site to ensure that your license information appears correctly.  Use the National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR) to correct or update information.
  • A notice telling you that your renewal application was denied.  The notice will tell you the reason for the denial and will provide you with instructions concerning your right to appeal the decision.
  • A notice telling you that your renewal application was deficient.  This notice will be emailed to you.  You must provide the Department with any additional materials identified in the deficiency notice or accompanying instructions.  You must cure all identified deficiencies or we may deny your license and you will forfeit the fees you paid.
NOTE:  We do not produce paper license certificates.  Licenses are accessible online through the LICENSE SEARCH option on our web site's main menu.

VIEW YOUR LICENSE

Your license will be available from the License Search option on this web site as soon as the Arizona Department of Insurance verifies you meet all license requirements.  You will not receive a printed license certificate. 

License applications can take up to one month to process.  You must not conduct insurance business until you are licensed.

All insurance professionals (both residents and nonresidents) can apply for licenses, renew licenses, and update addresses and phone numbers online through the National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR), at www.nipr.com.  

NIPR license and renewal applications are easy to complete, and we can usually process them faster than applications that are mailed to us. NIPR charges a small transaction fee (around $5 to $7) to process a license application and fee payment.  Many people have found that overall, the added convenience plus the time and postage savings are worth paying the fee.
