Comments sought on licensing requirements

June 20, 2017

In response to Executive Order 2017-06, the Idaho Department of Insurance will be reaching out to stakeholders for comment regarding the licensing and renewal process to ensure that the Department’s processes do not create unnecessary barriers to commerce or employment. Information on how individuals can submit comments will be available on the Department’s website, www.doi.idaho.gov. “The Department of Insurance is tasked with protecting the public through laws and rules associated with licensing and oversight,” said Department Director Dean Cameron. “These laws and rules will be thoroughly reviewed to determine their necessity and whether the public interest could be better served by making changes. Comments will be taken into consideration during this review.” Acting Governor Brad Little issued the Executive Order on May 19. The Department will begin taking electronic comments on June 21. Written comments will be accepted immediately and should be addressed to: Idaho Department of Insurance, Licensing Comments, PO Box 83720, Boise ID 83720-0043. The opportunity to comment will close May 1, 2018. The Idaho Department of Insurance has been regulating the business of insurance in Idaho since 1901.
