Reminder:  Each insurer is responsible for furnishing the South Carolina Department of Insurance with certification that its producers have met the SC biennial CE requirements prior to renewing appointments.  Insurers must certify that producers appointed with their company have complied with the South Carolina CE requirements, as applicable.  Insurers must submit certification to the Department via email no later than 5:00 p.m. EDT, August 25, 2010.

Before renewing appointments, insurers should compare the renewal listing provided by the Department with its own records.  Insurers can renew appointments September 1, 2010 through September 30, 2010.  Renewals received after September 30, 2010, are subject to penalties.

NOTE:  Accepting business from a producer whose license and appointment have lapsed constitutes the unauthorized transaction of insurance business and the insurer is subject to penalties.
