Iowa Producer Licensing & CE
How a person becomes and stays a licensed P&C producer in Iowa.
Getting Licensed
A resident producer obtains a property and casualty license from the Iowa Insurance Division after applying, completing any required prelicensing course, passing the state examination, clearing a background check, and paying the fee. Confirm current prelicensing-hour rules with the regulator, as they are set by rule.
Appointments and Continuing Education
To transact a specific insurer's business, that company must appoint the producer. Licenses renew on a set cycle with a fee, and Iowa requires state-approved continuing education, including an ethics component, each renewal period. Exact CE hour totals are set by the Iowa Insurance Division and should be verified before renewal.
