How to renew, step by step

  1. 1

    Confirm your license class and renewal date

    Idaho sets insurance agents requirements by license class (All licensees). Check the class printed on your license, then note your renewal date — renewals run the schedule your board assigns to your license.

  2. 2

    Complete 24 hours of board-approved continuing education

    Idaho Department of Insurance requires 24 hours each renewal period. Do not leave it for the last week — completions must be on file before the deadline.

    Save your certificate of completion

    Download the certificate the moment you finish and keep it with your license records.

  4. 4

    Make sure your hours reach the board

    In Idaho, you keep your certificate of completion and present it to the board if asked.

  5. 5

    Renew with Idaho Department of Insurance

    Submit your renewal and pay the renewal fee before the deadline. A late renewal usually means a late fee, and a lapsed license can mean re-applying from scratch.
