Relocating to Arizona from Another State

If you are an insurance producer or adjuster relocating to Arizona from another state where you were licensed as a resident, the application process is the same as for any other person applying for an Arizona resident license EXCEPT you are not subject to the pre-license examination requirement if Arizona offers the exact same license type and line of authority that you held in your resident state.  If the license and lines of authority are the same, submit with your license application a Clearance Letter issued by the insurance department/commission in your previous resident state.  The Clearance Letter must show the previous resident license was canceled within 90 days of our receiving your license application. If your previous resident state does not issue Clearance Letters, you must provide evidence of the date your resident license was canceled by your previous resident state.


"1033 Waiver"

18 USC § 1033 prohibits individuals convicted of certain offenses from engaging in or proposing to become engaged in the business of insurance without the written consent of an insurance regulatory official. 18 USC § 1033(e)(2).  Apart from applying for an insurance license, you must request permission to engage in the business of insurance if: 

  1. You have been convicted of any FELONY involving dishonesty or breach of trust that you have not disclosed on your application for an Arizona insurance license, or 
  2. You have been convicted of an 18 USC § 1033 offense, even if you have disclosed it on your application for an Arizona insurance license.

An 18 USC § 1033 offense includes:

  • Knowingly making a false material statement or report or overvaluing land, property or security in connection with reports or documents presented to any insurance regulatory official or agency for the purposes of influencing the actions of the official or agency. 18 USC § 1033(a)(1).
  • Knowingly making a false entry in any book, report or statement with the intent to deceive any person about the financial condition of an insurance business. 18 USC § 1033(c)(1).
  • Using, or attempting to use, threats or force or any threatening letter or communication to corruptly influence, obstruct or impede the due and proper administration of the law in a proceeding involving the business of insurance pending before any insurance regulatory official or agency. 18 USC § 1033(d).
