Texas Requiring Email for All Insurance Licensed Entities, Including Agents

The Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) has adopted a rule that requires individuals, agencies, and companies regulated by TDI to designate an email address for official communications from TDI.

To add or update an email address:

• Insurance companies and HMOs
• TPAs and premium finance companies
• Agents, adjusters, and agencies
• URAs and IROs
• Workers’ compensation networks
• Fire-industry licensees

The rule also allows electronic submissions to TDI in most cases where a paper method was previously required.

Visit the TDI website for the adopted rule.
