Alaska Statute does not have any provisions to recognize Designated Home State authority. If an adjuster resides in a state that does not offer adjuster license, they must take and pass the exam with Alaska. This applies even if they have a designated home state.

Alaska offers reciprocity to producers from states that acknowledge adjuster license class. If someone lives in Texas or Florida and is licensed as a resident, they would be able to obtain a reciprocal license here. If they are using either of those states as a DHS, they must take and pass our exam.
