I am an Arizona licensed agent and have recently moved to North Dakota and obtained employment through an agency in Williston. What are the requirements for me to become licensed in North Dakota?
According to the National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR), your Arizona resident license is still active. You will need to cancel your Arizona resident license before you can apply for a North Dakota resident license. Once your Arizona license has been canceled, you can apply for a North Dakota license through NIPR. The fee is $100 plus a $5 transaction fee. If you apply to North Dakota within 90 days of the date your Arizona license is canceled, you will not have to take any prequalifying exams.
