Registration as an insurance intermediary 

This page is intended for insurance agents and brokers seeking registration in the Register of Insurance Intermediaries. Before applying for registration, the applicant should become acquainted with the registration requirements which can be found in the set of regulations and guidelines to insurance intermediaries issued by the Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA). The FIN-FSA will charge a fee for applying for registration.

A natural person wishing to be registered as an insurance broker must pass the insurance broker’s examination in order to be entered into the Register of the Insurance Intermediaries maintained by the FIN-FSA. A person holding such a diploma must be familiar with the legislation necessary for pursuing insurance mediation activities and with good brokerage practice. He or she must also be familiar with the practical measures required by assignments.  The Insurance Mediation Board arranges insurance broker’s examinations.
