What type of license is required for an individual to adjust insurance claims in Indiana?

To adjust insurance claims in Indiana, an individual is required to hold either a resident or non-resident adjuster’s license. This type of license specifically qualifies individuals to assess and manage insurance claims. The distinction between resident and non-resident refers to where the individual resides while they practice; residents of Indiana need a resident license, while those from other states can operate under a non-resident license, provided they meet Indiana's regulatory requirements.

Holding this license ensures that the adjuster is recognized by the state to operate within its jurisdiction and adheres to the applicable laws and regulations regarding insurance practices. It demonstrates the adjuster's competence and understanding of the claims adjustment process, which is crucial for the fair handling of claims and the protection of consumer rights. Other licensing types, such as a general insurance license or claims adjuster certification, do not specifically confer the authority to adjust claims, which is why they are not the correct answer.
