State Launches Secure Licensing Website

HARTFORD — On February 7, Connecticut Insurance Commissioner Thomas R Sullivan announced improvements in the Insurance Department’s licensing division. Both individual and business entities now have the ability to make changes to licensing information online through a secure connection.

This improvement is aimed at offering increased convenience, efficiency, and timeliness to all licensees.

What has changed?

Until now, licensees were submitting paper or electronic forms that required input at the department. While paper change forms are still accepted at the Department, the increased functionality allows Insurance Department staff to focus on new and renewal licensee applications.

Licensees can now logon to a secure site to review and manage their general business, demographic, and Doing Business As (DBA) information, as it changes, providing accurate and timely updates to their records.

What can be updated?

Individual licensees will be able to update name, address, telephone number, and Doing Business As (DBA) names, as necessary. The online tool offers a secure and easy format for updating this important information.

Business entities will be able to update address, telephone number, Doing Business As (DBA) names, as well as change or update their designated responsible producers, to ensure compliance with state laws.

Visit www.ct.gov/cid, for all aforementioned licensing needs.
