What are the legal requirements for selling insurance in the US?

Insurance sales agents need a license in the US states where they plan to sell. Moreover, separate licenses are required for agents to sell life and health insurance and property and casualty insurance. In most States, licenses are issued only to applicants who complete specified prelicensing courses and who pass state examinations covering insurance fundamentals and state insurance laws. The U.S. Department of Labor says that states are increasingly moving toward uniform licensing standards and reciprocal licensing, thanks to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999. This would allow agents who earn a license in one state to become licensed in other states upon passing the appropriate courses and examination. Those are the strict licensing requirements. Most insurance sales agents also have some formal education and some voluntary certifications.

How do you become a life insurance agent?

Not knowing where you are located, the answer can only be a general one. Broadly, insurance is a regulated industry, and those who transact insurance with the public on behalf of insurers, are licensed by the insurance regulatory authority. In the US, the business of insurance is regulated by the individual States. Again, broadly, States require that prospective agents take a pre-licensing course to prepare for the insurance licensure exam; there are private entities that offer these courses, and many can be taken on line. Thereafter, the prospective agent takes a test in the State where he/she wishes to get licensed for the lines of insurance he/she wishes to transact. The State where a license is sought will conduct a complete background investigation to include criminal background to ensure that the applicant is of "good character" and has the necessary credentials for licensure. Thereafter, the licensed person applies to the company(ies) for an "appointment" (authority to transact insurance for the insurer).
