Exam logistics

Where to apply and book the exam

We have not published a step-by-step Florida checklist yet. These are the official sources; anything on this page that is not cited to one of them comes from the state's own published exam outline.

What Florida requires

Transcribed from NIPR's Florida resident licensing requirements page, read 2026-09-16. Fees and rules change; confirm against Florida Department of Financial Services before you file.

State exam

Agent exams are required for Life with Variable Annuities, Health, General Lines - All, Personal Lines, Surplus Lines and Title, and not required for Credit, Motor Vehicle Rental, Travel, Portable Electronics or Eyewear. Service Representative classes require no exam.

Fingerprints and background check

Applicants must be fingerprinted by IdentoGO by Idemia. Exemptions apply where prints were submitted within twelve months, or within forty-eight months for a current licensee.

How to apply

Apply electronically through NIPR, and open a MyProfile account at DICE.fldfs.com to track status.

License term and renewal

Continuing education is due every two years by the end of the licensee's birth month.

Also worth knowing

Florida application fees are non-refundable under section 626.171(5), F.S. Public Adjuster is not listed as a licence class on this page, which is why an adjuster candidate should work from the Department of Financial Services directly.
