How to renew your Insurance license in Connecticut

  1. Confirm your renewal deadline and current status on the Connecticut Insurance Department portal.
  2. Complete the required 24 CE hours and confirm they appear in NIPR.
  3. Submit the renewal application and pay the current fee online.
  4. Keep proof of CE and your renewal confirmation for your records.
Good to know: Renewal must be submitted online through NIPR; CT does not process paper producer renewals. CE must be complete and reported (provider posts within ~10 days) by the birth-month expiration date to renew at the $160 fee. If CE is completed after expiration, a late renewal fee applies, bringing the total to $320 (i.e., an additional $160). Online renewal notices are emailed about 90 days before expiration. CE transcript status must read "Compliant" before renewing. Producer-renewal page paths on the CID site shift periodically; the Producer Individual page is the stable verified source for fees and cycle.
