Important Information Regarding NC Non-Resident Adjuster Licenses!

Per the North Carolina Department of Insurance the continuing education requirements applicable to all non-resident adjusters for the North Carolina license continuation have changed. As of January 1, 2008 if you are a licensed adjuster in a state other than North Carolina and have kept your license in good standing in that state you shall be considered to have met the same continuing education requirements as resident adjusters. Through the National Producers Database (NPD), the state of North Carolina will confirm your status as a licensed adjuster. If the non-resident adjusters license is not in good standing in the appropriate state the non-resident adjuster’s license will be cancelled in North Carolina and a letter shall be mailed to the agent in the second quarter of 2008. Non-resident adjusters in North Carolina are required to meet the same continuing education requirements as those licensed in North Carolina, including the mandatory flood and ethics requirements.

The North Carolina Department of Insurance is in the process of updating their records and requires verification of the state in which you passed the adjuster examination in order to qualify for your non-resident adjuster’s license in North Carolina. You must complete the necessary form Non-Resident Adjuster Information and mail, fax or email it to the Agent Services Division for your licensing record and residence address to be properly updated. They must receive this form no later than February 1, 2008.

If you have additional questions you can contact the North Carolina Department of Insurance Agent Services Division at (919) 807-6800 or at http://www.ncdoi.com/asd/asd_home.asp
