# Representations and Warranties Insurance in Nebraska

Nebraska generally allows 5 years under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 25-205 for actions on written contracts, express or implied, subject to claim-specific exceptions and accrual rules. That statutory filing period does not set the survival date negotiated for each representation or the insurer’s reporting window; if Nebraska is the insured’s home state, the surplus-lines tax rate is 3%.[^1][^2][^3]

## What Is Representations And Warranties?

Representations and warranties insurance can cover a buyer’s or seller’s loss from inaccurate statements in a stock or asset purchase agreement. For a business sale, check who is insured, who can recover and how known issues are treated. [Read the national Representations and warranties guide](/coverage/representations-warranties).

## What to Watch for in Nebraska

### Separate The Statute From The Survival Schedule

Neb. Rev. Stat. § 25-205 provides 5 years for actions on written contracts, express or implied. Ask deal counsel to list a separate survival end date for each representation, then compare those dates with the insurer’s claim-reporting deadline.[^1]

### Confirm When A Contract Claim Accrues

Nebraska measures the cited contract period from accrual; Neb. Rev. Stat. § 25-205 covers actions on written contracts, express or implied. For an R&W placement, ask counsel to identify the alleged breach date and put it beside the purchase-agreement survival date and policy notice deadline.[^1]

### Show Home-State Tax In The Closing Costs

Federal law assigns nonadmitted premium-tax authority to the insured’s home state. If Nebraska is the home state for your R&W policy, 3% of gross premium charged, less return premiums applies under Neb. Rev. Stat. §§44-5501–44-5515. Ask the broker to state the tax base and any separate stamping or filing charge in the closing funds flow.[^3][^2]

## Who Regulates Insurance in Nebraska

**Nebraska Department of Insurance.** The Nebraska Department of Insurance oversees insurers and producers and examines insurance complaints. Its online company and producer search is maintained through State Based Systems.[^4][^5][^6]

### Surplus-Lines Tax and Stamping Office

**Reported tax rate:** 3% of gross premium charged, less return premiums Nebraska’s 3% tax applies to gross premium charged less return premium when the risk is Nebraska’s home-state placement; fees paid to the carrier are taxable, while broker-retained or third-party fees are not. A Nebraska-licensed surplus-lines producer ordinarily must complete due diligence, while exempt-commercial-purchaser provisions permit limited exceptions; federal ECP status alone does not erase the disclosure and subsequent written-request conditions for the federal search waiver. Nebraska policies state that its Property and Liability Guaranty Association will not cover surplus-lines claims.[^7][^8][^9][^10]

## Providers With Documented State Licenses

These providers publish a national listing for Representations and warranties; 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 that the product is available in Nebraska; [check the regulator’s license lookup](https://doi.nebraska.gov/company-and-producer-search) and confirm state availability for your business when requesting a quote.

- [Corgi](/insurance-providers/corgi) — **Entity:** Corgi Insurance Services, Inc.; **role:** Insurance producer; **checked:** 2026-09-28. **Scope:** Corgi’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.[^13]

## Questions to Ask Before You Buy in Nebraska

1. Which Nebraska limitation period and accrual rule apply to each seller representation, and does the governing-law clause point to a different state?
2. Can you put each negotiated representation survival date, the escrow release date, and the policy reporting deadline on one closing calendar?
3. If the policy is placed on a surplus-lines basis, is Nebraska the insured’s home state, what tax base applies, and who remits the tax?
4. Which state bulk-sale notice, tax-clearance, or successor-liability issues should the deal team evaluate for this asset or stock purchase?

## Representations And Warranties in Nebraska: FAQ

### How long is the written-contract limitation period in Nebraska?

5 years under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 25-205 for actions on written contracts, express or implied. Accrual, claim classification, and statutory exceptions can change which period applies.[^1]

### Does Nebraska’s contract limitation period set the R&W survival period?

No. Neb. Rev. Stat. § 25-205 sets a court-filing limit for actions on written contracts, express or implied; it does not set the negotiated survival end date for a representation or the separate deadline to notify the insurer.[^1]

### What surplus-lines tax applies to an R&W policy in Nebraska?

3% of gross premium charged, less return premiums when Nebraska is the insured’s home state, under Neb. Rev. Stat. §§44-5501–44-5515. Federal law assigns the premium-tax obligation to the home state; ask the broker to show the home-state and tax calculation on the closing statement.[^2][^3]
