Missouri Life, Accident and Health Insurance Producer Examination — exam facts

The handbook says candidates may test online or at a physical Pearson VUE location, but Pearson VUE's Missouri page describes booking only at a physical test center. The Department's resident-producer page states that Missouri does not require pre-licensing courses.

The February 2026 content outline contradicts itself. It heads the combined exam's general part as 50 scored plus 5 pretest questions, but that part's nine section weights add up to 100. The Missouri-specific part is 45 scored plus 5 pretest questions, and its sections do add up to 45. The handbook prints no question count. Until Pearson VUE resolves this, we do not state a total.

The handbook states that the reported scaled score is neither the number nor the percentage of questions answered correctly. A candidate who fails must wait 1 day before scheduling a re-examination. The handbook's licence-application section says Missouri exam scores are valid for 1 year.

• $40 — Examination fee at a test center (exam 54, Life, Accident and Health) (Pearson VUE, per attempt) Source
• $100 — Resident producer licence application fee (Missouri Department of Commerce and Insurance, one-time) Source

The exam fee is from the March 2026 handbook's table of fees at testing centers. The licence fee is from the Department's current resident-producer page and matches the handbook's licence chart, which also lists a biennial renewal fee of the same amount.

The handbook lists no translated form of the exam. Candidates whose primary language is not English may request additional time with the English as a Second Language form at the back of the handbook.
