Professional Liability (E&O) Insurance in Oklahoma

Oklahoma requires a paid home inspector who needs a license to submit proof of general liability insurance of at least $50,000 for licensing, renewal, or reactivation; the statute sets no E&O limit. The licensing law covers an individual inspecting residential property with four or fewer dwelling units, subject to listed occupational and government exemptions. 1

What Is Professional Errors And Omissions (E&O)?

What to Watch for in Oklahoma

  • Separate Inspections From Code or Engineering Opinions

    Oklahoma’s standards describe a visual inspection of readily accessible components in up to four-unit buildings and do not require a technical-exhaustive search, latent-defect detection, insurability determination, code-compliance opinion, or engineering work. If you sell any of those additional services, ask the broker to list them expressly rather than assume a home-inspector policy covers them. 2

  • Match Your Policy to Oklahoma’s File Duties

    Inspectors must keep a log for at least five years and copies of reports completed during the past 36 months at the principal business address. Confirm that your reporting and notice procedures leave enough time to identify a possible claim while the relevant file is still available. 2

  • Check the One-Year Repair Restriction

    An Oklahoma home inspector may not solicit or perform repairs on a home the inspector inspected during the preceding year, subject to rule details. If your firm also offers repairs, keep inspection and repair engagements separated and ask how your policy treats the distinct services. 2

Who Regulates Insurance in Oklahoma

Oklahoma Insurance Department

OID's Licensing Division oversees new and renewed producer, adjuster, and business-entity licenses. Its consumer assistance process takes insurance complaints and requests for help; the licensee lookup displays license status and expiration. 3,4,5

Surplus-lines tax and stamping office

Reported tax rate: 6% of premium and fees, plus 0.175% SLAS transaction fee For Oklahoma-home-state placements, OID says the 6% surplus-lines tax base includes premium and fees; SLIP also bills a 0.175% SLAS transaction fee. Oklahoma law requires a policy notice that surplus-lines coverage has no guaranty-association protection, so ask your broker to itemize the tax and transaction fee. 6,7,8

Providers With Documented State Licenses

These providers publish a national listing for Professional errors and omissions (E&O); the state records document licenses for the entities and roles shown below. Some records rely on company-reported information rather than independent regulator verification. A national listing does not confirm the product is available in Oklahoma. Check the regulator’s license lookup and confirm state availability for your business when requesting a quote.

  • At-BayAt-Bay Insurance Services LLCInsurance producer, Surplus-lines broker · checked 2026-09-28At-Bay’s license page lists P&C producer and surplus-lines broker license numbers for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. These are company disclosures and do not establish product availability in each jurisdiction. 9
  • CoalitionCoalition Insurance Solutions, Inc.Insurance producer, Surplus-lines broker · checked 2026-09-28Coalition’s license page lists producer and surplus-lines licenses for Coalition Insurance Solutions, Inc. in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The page separately lists insurers; this record covers the brokerage entity only. 10
  • CorgiCorgi Insurance Services, Inc.Insurance producer · checked 2026-09-28Corgi’s company producer-license table lists 50 jurisdictions: 49 states and the District of Columbia, including DC license 3003091619. New Mexico does not appear in the table and is not included here; the omission does not establish that Corgi is unlicensed there. The company-reported table has no stated as-of date and does not establish product availability. 11
  • ERGO NEXT InsuranceNext First Insurance Agency, Inc.Insurance producer · checked 2026-09-28ERGO NEXT’s current license table lists Next First Insurance Agency, Inc. in 50 jurisdictions, including Washington, DC; New York is excluded because its table rows name Next Insurance Services and AP Intego, not Next First. The table is company-reported; it does not establish product availability or provide state-regulator verification for each entry. 13
  • HiscoxHiscox Insurance Company Inc.Insurer · checked 2026-09-28Hiscox’s U.S. company information states that Hiscox Insurance Company Inc. is licensed in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. This is company-reported insurer authority for this entity and does not establish which company issues every Hiscox-branded product. 12
  • TechInsuranceSpecialty Program Group LLCInsurance producer · checked 2026-09-28TechInsurance’s current licensing page names Specialty Program Group LLC / SPG Insurance Solutions and lists state license numbers, but labels Rhode Island “Individual licenses” rather than identifying a license for the named agency. RI is omitted because this disclosure does not establish agency authority there; this is a search limitation, not an assertion that the company is unlicensed. The remaining state entries are company-reported and are not an insurance product availability map. 14
  • VouchVouch Specialty Insurance Services, LLCInsurance producer, Surplus-lines broker · checked 2026-09-28Vouch’s licenses page, effective January 16, 2025, lists producer licenses in all 50 states and DC. Its separate surplus-lines table includes Idaho number 870820, while a footnote says Georgia and Idaho do not issue agency-level surplus-lines licenses. Because those statements conflict for Idaho, this record keeps Idaho producer-only and does not treat the table number as established agency surplus-lines authority. The page is company-reported and does not establish product availability. 15

Questions to Ask Before You Buy in Oklahoma

  1. Does the policy cover paid inspection reports on homes with four or fewer dwelling units, and are any optional services separately scheduled?
  2. Does the application accurately exclude engineering, code-compliance, or insurability opinions that Oklahoma’s inspector standards do not require?
  3. How will the policy and our records process handle a claim discovered after an inspection report, given the state’s five-year log and 36-month report-copy rules?
