Producers

The Missouri Department of Insurance offers comprehensive online services for insurance professionals to manage their licenses, including application, renewal, verification, and continuing education tracking.

Resident Producers

In Missouri, you can apply for, renew, or verify your professional license, as well as locate your license number and National Producer Number (NPN). It’s essential to keep your license information updated and complete any required continuing education, with resources available for assistance. If you're moving to or from Missouri, be sure to follow the necessary steps to maintain compliance with licensing regulations.

Non-Resident Producers

Non-resident producers can apply for an insurance license in Missouri through the National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR) website. To renew a non-resident license, producers must complete the renewal process electronically through NIPR before their license expiration date. Non-resident producers can verify their license status, print their license, find their license number and National Producer Number (NPN), and update their license information through the NIPR website or the Missouri Department of Insurance's online services.

Business Entities

Business entities seeking to operate in the insurance industry can apply for resident or non-resident licenses depending on their primary place of business. For resident travel business entity producers, a specialized license may be required to sell travel insurance products within their home state, while non-resident travel business entity producers must obtain appropriate licensure to operate across state lines. Business entities can easily verify their license status, print their license, find their license number and National Producer Number (NPN), and manage producer/agency affiliations through their state's department of insurance website or the National Insurance Producer Registry (NIPR) portal.

Continuing Education

Insurance producers are required to complete continuing education (CE) courses to maintain their licenses, with specific requirements varying by state and license type. Producers can easily access and print their education transcripts through their state's department of insurance website or a designated CE tracking system, allowing them to monitor their progress towards meeting CE requirements. Long-term care training is often a specialized CE requirement for producers selling long-term care insurance, while professional membership organizations may offer approved CE courses to their members, and course providers must submit course applications and upload course rosters to ensure proper credit is given to participating producers.
