This regulatory bulletin summarizes the major, newly enacted legislation affecting the Department, its licensees, and Arizona insurance consumers.

This bulletin supersedes Regulatory Bulletin 2015-01A.  This bulletin sets $2,610 as the threshold amount of property damages insurers may use to non-renew private passenger automobile policies.

The purpose of this Bulletin is to advise all surety insurers that engage bail bond agents to post appearance (bail) bonds in Arizona courts of a change of procedure within the Department.  As of the date of this Bulletin, the Department will now refer indemnitors with unreleased liens on vehicles and real property directly to the surety insurer that issued a bail bond that the court has exonerated if it cannot communicate with the bail bond agent or the bail bond agent fails to cooperate in releasing the lien.
