Become a Nevada Insurance Adjuster

AdjusterPro's Bottom-line: Nevada residents must have 2 years experience in claims handling and/or adjusting before being eligible for an independent adjuster license. Nevada does not license non-residents as Independent Adjusters. Non-residents wishing to adjust in Nevada must be “affiliated” with a Nevada licensed Independent Adjuster and apply for an Associate Adjuster license.

Nevada License Application

• Non-residents: all non-resident applicants must be affiliated with a licensed resident adjuster (individual or business entity) in order to become licensed in Nevada. Submit the Uniform Application for Individual Insurance Producer License Form 327 and include an additional $60 affiliation fee with your application fee of $195. 

Reciprocity

Nevada does not grant licenses reciprocally. Non-residents wishing to act as adjusters in Nevada must be licensed as “associate adjusters."

Exemption from exam: “An applicant for licensing in this state who was previously licensed for the same lines of authority in another state need not complete any pre-licensing education or examinations if the application is received within 90 days after the cancellation of the former resident license. If the Division is unable to verify the cancellation of a former resident license, it may be necessary for the applicant to provide an original Letter of Clearance to document the cancellation date.”
