Illinois surplus line producer licenses are issued by
the
Illinois Department of Insurance, not by the Surplus
Line Association. Some things to know about surplus line licensing:
- You must first have an Illinois producer license in order to get a surplus line license. For information about getting a producer license, see the producer
page of the DOI website.
- Surplus line producer applications and renewals are handled through the NAIC's
National Insurance Producer Registry, or NIPR.
- To obtain a surplus line license, simply complete the application on NIPR and pay the
appropriate fee. There is no class, exam, fingerprinting, bond, or any other prelicensing
requirement, and there is no annual continuing education requirement.
- The fee is $400 and license is good for one year.
- Once you have submitted your application on NIPR, complete the SLAI
Membership & EFS Registration Packet and send it to us. Membership in the SLAI is a condition
of licensure in Illinois. There is no membership cost, but your license can be suspended or revoked
if you fail to join and maintain your membership.
- Illinois only licenses individuals for surplus line licenses, not corporations or business entities.
