Applicants must submit their Certificate of Completion to the Texas Department of Insurance with their license application and fingerprint receipt. Certificates of Completion are valid for one year from the date of issue.

If the non-resident applicant holds a license in good standing in the applicant's state of residence and that state will grant a non-resident license to a Texas resident on a reciprocal basis, then the non-resident applicant may apply for comparable license authority in Texas and be exempt from examination, continuing education and criminal history report requirements.
One of the following must be submitted with your application:

• Your criminal history record from your state’s law enforcement agency.
• Your current Certificate of Good Standing from your state.

For non-resident fingerprinting requirement please view the TDI Fingerprint Requirements and Instructions.
Once the state of Texas issues you an Adjuster license, you may then apply for licenses in more than 30 other states that offer a reciprocal license. View more information.

Texas grants reciprocal licenses to adjusters who are licensed in their home state or who hold a Designated Home State (DHS) license, as long as that state grants reciprocal licenses to Texas adjusters. CA, HI, and NY do not offer reciprocal licenses to Texas adjusters.
