IMPORTANT NOTICE:
All Vermont licenses expire on March 31 of the applicable renewal year. The expiration year (odd or even) is determined by license classification.
The renewal period opens 90 days prior to expiration (January 1 – March 31). Applicants who submit a new license application during this period may be required to submit a renewal application and pay the renewal fee immediately after issuance to maintain active status.
Example (Individual Insurance Producer):
Individual Insurance Producer licenses renew in odd-numbered years.
If a Producer license is issued on February 26, 2027, the license will expire on March 31, 2027 because the license was issued during the renewal period and 2027 is the applicable renewal year for that license type.
The applicant must return to NIPR and submit a renewal application immediately after issuance to keep the license active.For license-specific renewal cycles, please refer to the Vermont Non-Resident License Renewal page.
