Important Renewal Dates & Deadlines

Louisiana’s Business Entity renewal invoice period runs from July 1 through August 1, 2025, with invoices posted to NIPR’s website starting at 8:00 AM CDT on July 1. Companies must submit termination requests for appointments not being renewed by 4:00 PM CDT on June 27, 2025. Invoices will disappear from the NIPR portal after 4:00 PM CDT on August 1, so timely action is critical. Your invoice can be found here: Company Appointment Renewals User Agreement

Who Is Impacted

This renewal applies to business entity appointments covering the following lines of authority:

• Life, Accident & Health
• Property & Casualty
• Variable Life & Variable Annuity Products
• Limited Life, Health, and Accident

Appointments active as of June 27, 2025, will be included in the invoice. Any appointment added on or after June 28 will fall outside of this year’s billing cycle. Business entities must be in active status to be renewed.

Payment and Processing Guidelines

Accepted payment methods include electronic checks and credit cards, with a $60,000 credit card limit. If your invoice exceeds this threshold, contact the Louisiana Department of Insurance directly. NIPR will process payments and forward renewal data to the state within 24 hours of receipt.

The state fee is $100 per appointment, and there is no late renewal window—so timely payment is essential. NIPR’s processing fee is 1% of the state fee with a minimum of $5 and a cap of $1,000. All fees are non-refundable.

If you believe your invoice contains errors, do not pay immediately. Contact support@nipr.com for assistance.

Reconciliation Support

For carriers needing to reconcile their appointments before renewal, NIPR Subscribers can use the Company Appointment Report (CAR) and Interactive Appointment and Termination Application. Not yet a subscriber? Reach out to NIPR or work with a reseller like Agenzee for guided support.
