Louisiana Insurance CE Renewal Requirements and Checklist

Louisiana CE depends on the producer lines held. Major-line producers generally work from a 24-hour renewal requirement, but title and bail have different hour totals and subject requirements.

Renewal checklist

Check the Louisiana Producer/Adjuster Portal for current transcript and expiration.
Complete the correct track: 24/3 for major lines, 24 adjuster, or 12 title/bail as applicable.
Add flood hours if Property, Casualty, or Personal Lines authority is held and flood is sold.
Confirm the provider has reported CE within the 15-day roster window before renewing.
Use the renewal window before the last day of the birth month; late renewal is a recovery path, not the plan.

Common mistakes to avoid

Treating flood, ethics, or future law-update carryover as satisfying those same subjects next cycle.
Repeating a course too soon and expecting credit.
Submitting renewal before CE has been reported to Louisiana.
Using the 24-hour major-line rule for title or bail without the required specialty subjects.
