General Information
For general information about licensing requirements and testing, visit the South Carolina Department of Insurance Web site at http://www.doi.sc.gov/.
Section 38-43-105 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, the 40-hour pre-licensing education requirements for producers only, was repealed on June 16, 2008. Bail bondsmen and runners are still required to comply with pre-licensing education requirements as mandated in Section 38-53-85 of the South Carolina Code of Laws.
Because the state examination is very comprehensive and challenging, most people still need to take the 40-hour pre-licensing course to pass the state examination the first time. The goal is to attain a producer’s license and begin producing business immediately. The fastest route to accomplish this is to attend the four-day classroom course or take it online.
Examination Information The South Carolina Department of Insurance has contracted with Prometric to provide the licensing examination. Please contact Prometric directly to register for an exam, pay the exam fee and schedule an appointment. You can view South Carolina-specific information on Prometric’s Web site, www.prometric.com/southcarolina, or call 800.490.6548.
