MEMORANDUM 2022-5LIC
TO:
All Resident and Nonresident Producers and Surplus Lines Brokers (“SLBs”)
FROM:
Colin M. Hayashida
Insurance Commissioner
SUBJECT:
Remove Marine and Transportation (“MA”), Personal Lines (“PL”), Surety (“SU”),
and Vehicle (“VE”) Lines of Authority (“LOAs”) on Licenses if the Licensee also
Holds Property and Casualty (“P&C”) LOAs
Effective May 31, 2022, the Insurance Division will make the following changes to existing
resident and nonresident producer and surplus lines broker (“SLB”) licenses as the Hawaii P&C
LOA currently includes MA, PL, SU, and VE insurance:
1.
For resident and nonresident producer licenses with the following LOAs - P&C, MA,
PL, SU and VE: The Insurance Division will remove MA, PL, SU, and VE, and only P&C
will be listed on the license.
2.
For resident and nonresident SLB licenses with the following LOAs - P&C, MA, PL, SU
and VE: The Insurance Division will remove MA, PL, SU, and VE, and only P&C will be
listed on the license.
There are no changes to LOAs listed on licenses that have only PL or SU lines of authority.
These new changes will simplify lines of authority on Hawaii licenses and make licensing
processes and requirements more uniform with industry standards. It will also expedite the
Insurance Division’s transition to electronic processing of insurance licenses.
Please contact the Insurance Division Licensing Branch at inslic@dcca.hawaii.gov if you have
any questions on this matter.
