1) Complete name of the insurance company providing coverage to the licensee.

2) Name, address and telephone number for the insurance agency.

d) Within thirty (30) days after the renewal of an insurance policy, the licensee shall forward a copy of the renewed Certificate of Insurance to the Department. Although this responsibility may be delegated to the insurance company, it shall be the responsibility of the licensee to ensure that this requirement is met.
