Section 27-1-20-12 - Retaliatory provisions(a) When, by the laws of any other state, any taxes, fines, penalties, licenses, fees, deposits of money or securities, or other obligations or prohibitions are imposed upon insurance companies of this or other states, or their agents, greater than are required by laws of this state, then the same obligations and prohibitions, of whatever kind, shall, in like manner for like purposes, be imposed upon all insurance companies of such states and their agents. All insurance companies of other nations, under this section, shall be held as of the state where they have elected to make their deposit and establish their principal agency in the United States.(b) Whenever it shall be made to appear to the insurance commissioner that permission to transact business within any state of the United States, other than the state of Indiana, or within any foreign country, is refused to an insurance company organized under the laws of this state, after a certificate of the solvency and good management of such company has been issued to it by the insurance commissioner and after such company has complied with any reasonable laws of such other state or foreign country requiring deposits of money or securities with the government of such other state or foreign country, then and in every such case, the commissioner may forthwith cancel the authority of every insurance company organized under the laws of such other state or foreign country and licensed to do business in this state, and may refuse a certificate of authority to every such company thereafter applying to him for authority to do business in this state, until his certificate shall have been duly recognized by the government of such other state or foreign country.Formerly: Acts 1935, c.162, s.259; Acts 1937, c.288, s.5.
