NAICOM unveils new portal for licensing agents

The National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) has unveiled a new licensing portal for insurance agents to register and renew their licences.

NAICOM stated this in a statement made available to newsmen on Wednesday in Lagos.

It said the new portal would ease, fast-track and streamline licensing of insurance agents as well as reduce manual intervention in the issuance of agency licences.

The insurance regulator noted that consequently, all applications for registration and renewal of agency licence would henceforth be submitted using https://agent.naicom.gov.ng on the new portal effective August 1.

NAICOM said: “It is hereby advised that all pending applications that have not been registered on the old portal should be resubmitted through the new agents licensing portal.

“All registered agents and insurance companies are hereby advised to note the above and be guided accordingly.”
