Reciprocal Licensing

Initiative/Project Name:

Reciprocal Licensing

Status:

Complete

Description:

The objectives of the Reciprocal Licensing Standards Committee was to research and recommend to CCIR and CISRO a model for reciprocal licensing that includes a harmonized proposal for errors and omissions insurance and continued education.

 

Fall 2006: The CCIR reviewed the status of the reciprocal licensing reliance model that was implemented as of July 4, 2006 in each jurisdiction where it was possible.

 

Under the reliance model, a host jurisdiction relies on most of the requirements of the agent’s home jurisdiction but can request that the agent meet some further jurisdiction-specific requirements.

 

The CCIR thanked the Reciprocal Licensing Committee for a job well done, noted that they have fulfilled their mandate admirably and agreed to disband the committee.
