In the event of a catastrophe, emergency adjusters are required to become licensed in Michigan
prior to adjusting claims. Each individual must submit an application form FIS 0221, along with
our fee processing card (FIS 0223) and a check or money order made payable to the State of
Michigan for $15.00. In response to the emergency, the Office of Financial and Insurance
Regulation will expedite the application process for emergency adjuster applicants. Emergency
adjuster applicants should contact the Insurance Licensing Section at 877-999-6442 to validate
the emergency and receive special instructions for licensure.
Resident and non-resident adjuster licenses expire annually on March 31. Renewal information
can be found here.
