Alabama Now Requiring Quarterly Reports From Surplus Lines Brokers

Starting this spring, surplus lines brokers in Alabama must file quarterly reports showing all surplus lines transactions, the state Department of Insurance said this week.

The rule is in keeping with state law and took effect Jan. 1.

The quarterly schedule:

• Q1: due May 30
• Q2: due August 30
• Q3: due Nov. 30
• Q4: due Jan. 30 (2025).

Forms are available on the department’s website.

The state insurance commissioner this week also said the department has adopted the 2025 Valuation Manual from the National Association of Insurance Commissioners.
