Since the state of Oregon is no longer issuing paper licenses (click HERE for the blog article detailing this change), I have received many inquiries as to how a licensee can check their insurance licensing status. Given the changes with the license renewal rules, that’s a good question! Yet once again- ask and ye shall receive! Would I ever leave you floundering for answers? Well….maybe once in a while, but NOT NOW!
It’s a simple matter to check licensing status, as it’s now public record. You’ll need to have the first/last name of the licensee, or the license number. You can do the same for agencies and insurers by providing the name of that agency or carrier! All you have to do is access the Oregon Insurance Division’s website, plug in the info, and voila! The database houses licensing data for resident, non-resident, agency licenses and insurance company information.
It’s easy…click HERE for the state’s web page that will get you producer licensing info, click HERE for agency licensing info, and click HERE for insurer information! You can also print out the information as well-- look for the “print” option in the lower right-hand corner of the search results page!
