How many days written notice does the Department need to provide concerning impending license expiration?

The Texas Department of Insurance requires a written notice to be sent to licensees regarding impending license expiration at least 30 days prior to the expiration date. This notice serves to inform individuals early enough so they have the opportunity to take necessary actions, such as renewing their license, to avoid any lapse in their ability to operate legally. Adequate notification is vital in ensuring that license holders are given a fair chance to comply with renewal requirements, which helps maintain standards within the industry and protects consumers.

Other options suggest different durations that do not align with the statutory requirements for license expiration notifications in Texas. By adhering to the 30-day notice period, the Department ensures that all parties are adequately informed and can avoid complications related to their licensing status.
