US regulations:
Each US state regulates individuals who sell Health Insurance and Property & Casualty policies to cover risk in their respective state by requiring the individual to obtain a Health or P&C license. An individual must obtain a resident license in the state he or she resides or works in. The individual often times must fulfill a certain amount of course hours to familiarize him/her with the state's regulations and the professional conduct that is expected of the licensee. The individual must also pass an exam.

- Insurance Mediators have to register. Furthermore, the necessity to prove the adequate knowledge (i.e. through an exam), and the duty to have a professional liability insurance are to be introduced.
- In the case of legal persons, the exam for the proof of the adequate knowledge must be taken by a senior employee and it must be internally guaranteed and documented that the relevant employee are adequately qualified.
- Insurance mediators which have been active without interruption since at least August 31, 2000, can be exempted from the duty to take an exam.
