An Arkansas resident producer must do which of the following to solicit insurance in Louisiana?

To solicit insurance in Louisiana, an Arkansas resident producer must obtain a nonresident license. This is a standard requirement for insurance producers who wish to conduct business in states other than where they are licensed. The nonresident license allows producers to engage with clients in Louisiana while still maintaining their primary license in Arkansas.

This process ensures that producers meet the regulatory standards of Louisiana while allowing them to operate across state lines. States typically require nonresident producers to provide proof of licensing in their home state and may also require adherence to local regulations and laws.

Options such as completing Louisiana's state licensing exam or providing proof of residency are unnecessary for nonresidents already licensed in their home state. Filing for a temporary license is more appropriate for individuals who are new to the industry or seeking immediate short-term authority to operate while awaiting full licensing.
