How to get a life insurance producer license in Arkansas.

## Requirements at a glance

- **Regulator:** Arkansas Insurance Department (https://insurance.arkansas.gov/)
- **License:** Insurance Producer License (Life line of authority)
- **Pre-licensing education:** required — 20 hours
- **Exam provider:** PSI
- **Fingerprints / background check:** required
- **Renewal:** every 2 year(s)
- **Continuing education:** 24 hours per renewal period

## How to apply

Complete 20-hour pre-licensing course, submit application and Arkansas State Police fingerprint background check, then receive PSI authorization to test and pass the exam within 90 days

## Notes

Arkansas reverses the usual order: the application and fingerprint background check are completed before the exam, after which PSI issues an authorization to test valid for 90 days.
