Questions

How do I get an insurance license in Delaware?

Pick the line (life & health, property & casualty or adjuster), complete any required pre-licensing course, pass the state exam with Pearson VUE, get fingerprinted if required and apply through NIPR or the Delaware Department of Insurance.

Does Delaware require a pre-licensing course?

Not for life & health (as of our last check). Many candidates still take an exam-prep course.
