Insurance Commission Licensure Exam - Non-Life

It is a multiple-choice examination delivered in English. Questions are scenario-based and test application rather than recall alone. The Insurance Commission publishes the current number of items, time limit, and coverage breakdown on its official website, so confirm the format there before your test date.

Difficulty is moderate: the concepts are not mathematically heavy, but the coverage is broad. Candidates who only memorize definitions struggle with scenario questions that combine principles, policy conditions, and claims. Those who practice applying rules to short fact patterns usually find the exam manageable.

Most candidates need several weeks of consistent study. A practical plan is two to three weeks on principles and contract law, two weeks on product lines, one week on underwriting and claims, and one week on regulation and financial aspects, with practice questions throughout. Adjust for your background in insurance.

Retake rules, waiting periods, and any limits on attempts are set by the Insurance Commission and can change. The official website publishes the current retake policy. Check it before assuming you can re-sit immediately, and use the interval to review the domains where your score was weakest.

Start with insurance principles and contract law, because insurable interest, indemnity, warranties, and conditions appear in every other domain. Then study product coverages and exclusions, followed by underwriting and rating, claims handling, regulation and ethics, and finally financial aspects. This order builds vocabulary before procedures.

Candidates commonly confuse proximate cause with the last event, misapply subrogation and contribution, overlook policy conditions and exclusions in scenario questions, and mix up coverages across fire, marine, motor, and casualty lines. Weakness in regulation and claims procedure is also common. An error log helps target these.

The Insurance Commission sets the eligibility requirements for agents and brokers, which may include age, education, and sponsorship by a licensed insurer or broker. Requirements can differ by license type. Check the current rules on the Commission's website rather than relying on secondhand advice.

Answer by domain, then review every wrong answer and every guess. For each, write the rule you missed and one example of how it is tested. Re-attempt missed questions after a week. Timed mixed sets near the exam date train pacing and reveal whether you can switch between product lines quickly.
