How to get a life insurance producer license in Delaware.

## Requirements at a glance

- **Regulator:** Delaware Department of Insurance (https://insurance.delaware.gov/)
- **License:** Insurance Producer License (Life line of authority)
- **Pre-licensing education:** not required
- **Exam provider:** Pearson VUE
- **Fingerprints / background check:** required
- **Renewal:** every 2 year(s)
- **Continuing education:** 24 hours per renewal period

## How to apply

Pass the Pearson VUE exam, obtain state and FBI criminal history reports through the Delaware State Police (dated within 90 days), then apply online via NIPR

## Notes

Delaware uses no third-party fingerprint vendor — applicants schedule directly with the Delaware State Police — and licenses renew on a fixed date, the last day of February in even-numbered years, rather than by birth month.
