Reach new flood insurance customers with the Agency Registry

Enroll your agency now to be included in the NFIP Quoting Tool Get started

The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is making it easier for insurance agencies to sell flood insurance policies with its NFIP Quoting Tool and Agency Registry:

• Property owners will receive a customized estimate from the NFIP’s new, direct-to-consumer Quoting Tool.
• Contact information for three randomly selected agencies from the Agency Registry will be shared with their estimate. The potential policyholders that reach out to your agency will be informed and ready to buy flood insurance.

Add your agency to the Agency Registry and unlock access to more potential policyholders.

Frequently asked questions about the agency registry

• What information does the NFIP's Agency Registry collect?

  The information collected includes:

  • the principal agent’s name, national producer number, email address and phone number, and
  • the agency’s name, national producer number, physical address, email address, phone number, and languages spoken.
• How will my agency information appear on the NFIP’s Quoting Tool?

  Your agency's name, email address, phone number, and languages spoken will appear on the NFIP's Quoting Tool. It will also show your agency's physical address if the agency selects "No" to the "Are you a Regional or National Producer" question.

• How do I sign up if I write flood insurance with multiple Write-Your-Owns (WYOs)/NFIP Direct?

  Your insurance agency cannot be associated with more than one WYO/NFIP Direct per agency location. If your insurance agency writes flood insurance with multiple WYOs/NFIP Direct, please select only one.

• What happens if I don’t write flood insurance with any of the WYOs/NFIP Direct on the list?

  Please reach out to your WYO/NFIP Direct and ask them about participating in the Agency Registry.

• My agents have not completed the Flood Insurance Reform Act (FIRA) training. What does this mean when I fill out the Agency Registry form?

  When filling out the form, you are asked whether the agents who work with the NFIP customers are FIRA certified. If you select ‘no’ to the question, then you can still be included in the Agency Registry database, but you will not appear in the NFIP Quoting Tool. Once your agents are certified, you can submit the updated information by selecting ‘yes’ to the question and your agency will appear in the Tool. To learn more about FIRA certified training please visit the NFIP’s State Training Requirements for Agents.

• What happens after I complete the NFIP’s Agency Registry form?

  Completed forms are sent to the administrative point of contact at your WYO/NFIP Direct. They will review your information for accuracy, completeness and approval. The principal agent will get an email notification if they are approved or denied.

• How soon after my insurance agency is approved will I appear in the NFIP’s Quoting Tool?

  Your agency will appear in the NFIP's Quoting tool immediately after your approval.

• Is there a re-validation process of my insurance agency’s information?

  Yes, you will need to re-validate your agency's information every 6 months.

• My insurance agency has multiple locations. Can I sign up each of my locations?

  Yes, you can sign up each location if you select ‘No’ to the ‘Are You a Regional or National Producer?’ question.

• How should I complete the Agency Registry form if my agency is a local insurance agency?

  If you are an insurance agency that principally services your community, select "No" to the "Are You a Regional or National Producer?" question.

• My insurance agency works across multiple states and/or territories. How should I complete the Agency Registry form?

  If you are an insurance agency that principally services multiple states and/or territories, select "Yes" to the "Are You a Regional or National Producer?" question. You'll then select the states and/or territories where you are licensed to sell insurance.
