Reinsurance manager

You do not need to take an exam for a reinsurance manager license.

Most people who apply for a license must: (1) get a fingerprint background check from IdentoGO, and (2) send us a copy of the IdentoGO receipt showing that their fingerprints were sent to the Texas Department of Public Safety.
Some people can ask for an exemption from getting a fingerprint background check. To learn more, see the Texas Administrative Code.

You do not need to get a fingerprint background check if:
- You live in Texas and (1) have an active license or registration with us, and (2) have already submitted fingerprints.
- You don’t live in Texas, but do hold an active resident license in your home state. If you don’t, you must send one of the following with your application:
  - Your criminal history record from your state’s law enforcement agency, or
  - Your current Certificate of Good Standing from your state.
To receive your fingerprint service code and instructions, you must begin the application process on TDI’s online initial application and fingerprint portal.
To learn more, read the fingerprinting requirements and instructions.
