If you held a resident insurance license in another state and are relocating to Arizona, you must submit a license application to the Department within 90 days after canceling the resident license in your former state to avoid having to take an Arizona insurance exam. Your application must include a “clearance letter” issued by the insurance department in your former state. The letter must specify the following:
- The date when your license from the former state was canceled, expired or converted to a nonresident status.
- The line of authority for which you were licensed in the other state.
- That you were licensed in good standing at the time the license expired, canceled, or converted to a nonresident status.

Fingerprinting Requirements: If you are an Arizona resident, a nonresident relocating to Arizona, or a nonresident adjuster whose home state does not license adjusters, you must submit fingerprints with your license application (if you have not done so in the past year).
