Effective April 1, 2025, New Mexico is clarifying the language regarding Producer, Adjuster, and other license classes for resident and nonresident, for individuals and business entity licenses.
- Resident and nonresident Pharmacy Benefit Managers business entities will need to designate a Designated responsible licensed producers (DRLPs)

Nonresident
New Mexico updated language involving requirements of getting a license as a nonresident agent or broker if convicted of a felony involving dishonesty or breach of trust if that person has written consent from the Superintendent.  The individual must
- Have the written consent of the home state; 
- And provide acceptable verification to the Superintendent by an OSI-prescribed method.
Resident
The requirement for when a license needs to be reinstated has been updated to remove the option to retake the qualifying examination. A licensee must complete all required CE before submitting an application.

For a resident adjuster license, if the applicant is a citizen of a foreign country, then the application must include proof the applicant is eligible to reside and work in the U.S. 
Resident adjuster licensing made a change that each public adjuster must obtain separate proof of financial responsibility and may not rely on the bond of any other adjuster.
