Iowa Insurance License Renewal Requirements (Total CE + Ethics + Timing)

License term & renewal timing

✅ Iowa producer licenses run on a 3-year term, tied to the last day of your birth month in the year the license was issued (and each term thereafter). 

Total CE required (resident producers)

✅ Iowa resident producers must complete 36 total CE credits per CE term, and 3 of those credits must be Ethics. 

CE completion deadline

✅ Iowa requires completion/proof received by the end of the last business day of the producer’s CE term. 

State roster/processing fee (the “$1 per hour” fee)

✅ Iowa uses SBS roster reporting, and there is a $1.00 per credit fee associated with reporting credits.
Good news: your $15.99 price already includes that fee for this 3-hour course, so you don’t get charged an extra $3 later.
