If you are not a Mississippi resident and wish to apply for a Mississippi license, you must complete and submit the Uniform Application for Individual Nonresident License, available at www.sircon.com or at www.nipr.com. For additional assistance, contact the Department to determine the appropriate procedures and requirements.

Nonresident applicants who hold a license in good standing in their resident state that provides the same or similar authority as the Mississippi license sought, and whose state of residence grants non-resident licenses to Mississippi residents on a reciprocal basis, are not required to take the examination. These applicants must submit to Mississippi the NAIC Uniform Application, available at www.sircon.com or at www.nipr.com.

Nonresident adjuster applicants who hold an adjuster DHS license in a nonresident state may apply on a reciprocal basis if the DHS state provides the same or similar authority as the Mississippi license sought and will not be required to take the adjuster exam for the same or similar license authority.

If the authority is not the same, a Mississippi adjuster exam is required to be licensed. The exam can be administered at any Pearson VUE test site. Nonresident applicants requesting to become a Mississippi resident must complete and submit the Uniform Application for Individual License, available at www.sircon.com or at www.nipr.com. You will also need to attach an original Letter of Clearance (no older than 90 days from license expiration). Please contact the Department for questions concerning the Letter of Clearance.
