Fees
  • $49 — Examination fee (General Lines — Life, Accident & Health) (Pearson VUE, per attempt) Source
  • $50 — Licence application fee, per licence type (Texas Department of Insurance, one-time) Source

The exam fee is from the October 2024 handbook, the edition Pearson VUE currently links; the $50 application fee is printed both there and on TDI's current application page. The application must be submitted within one year of passing the exam. Fingerprinting is booked separately through IdentoGO and its fee is not printed in the handbook, so it is not shown here.
