(1) To maintain registration, a registered eligible captive insurer must renew certificates of registration annually by June 30th. If an eligible captive insurer fails to properly renew their certificate of registration, then its registration will expire at the end of its registration period.
(2) The renewal process will require that a registered eligible captive insurer continue to meet eligibility requirements in accordance with RCW
48.201.020 and
48.201.030, and pay a renewal fee.
(3) For renewal, the commissioner will charge an annual renewal fee not to exceed $2,500.00. The amount of the renewal fee will be published on the commissioner's website and must be paid by June 30th.
(4) The renewal period will be from July 1st through June 30th.
(5) In order to obtain a timely annual renewal, a registered eligible captive insurer should file the renewal application no later than April 1st. Otherwise, OIC may not approve the eligible captive insurer's renewal before the June 30th expiration date and the eligible captive insurer's registration will expire. If an eligible captive insurer's registration expires, it will then need to complete and file a new application and pay the fee for a new registration.
