NC Non Resident Licensees  (Policies filed by the another resident agent)

Non resident agents who were using a NC Surplus lines licensee to file your tax prior to 01/01/2017 must continue to use this licensee for any endorsements on the filings that have been processed by that licensee. On new or renewal business the non resident agent may continue to use this licensee, submit to another licensee, or through the NCSLA as outlined above. Please check with your current filer for any specific requirements going forward.

NC Resident Licensees

  • This includes all audits, returns and additional premium endorsements.
  • Please note that the NC Form F is still required on all new and renewal filings with an effective date prior to 01/01/2017
  • Any questions regarding these filings for resident filers should be directed to the NCDOI.
