Simplify Your Business Licensing Process with CSC

There are more than 160,000 local, county, municipal, township, and special district governments in the United States.

For every business license filing or renewal, CSC will:

• Obtain the necessary documents and data

• Complete your application

• Deliver the materials to the licensing authorities

• Confirm that your business license has been successfully filed with the licensing authority

• Follow up with the jurisdiction through completion of your license renewal or application, upload the business license images to your web-based portfolio, and mail you the originals

New location research

CSC's industry-leading research methodology leaves no stone unturned when it comes to your licenses. Your final report will clearly outline all the details needed for a successful filing.

• Ideal for new locations, detailed research uncovers all your business licensing requirements with state, county, and municipal licensing authorities.

• CSC conducts research with the jurisdiction authorities and sends a detailed report with relevant license applications specific to your location, industry type, and business activities.

• We send applications to you as fillable PDFs, along with filing tips, licensing contact information, and a breakdown of the required fees.

Existing location research

• CSC performs detailed research to uncover business license requirements at the state, county, and municipal authorities as indicated by the issuing offices, and verifies what is currently on file, what hasn't been filed, and what you don't need.

• CSC performs its research based on your company's location, industry, business activities, and products and services.

• We send you a detailed report outlining license numbers, types, statuses, missing licenses, any licenses filed unnecessarily, and any applications as identified by the jurisdiction. CSC also provides copies of existing licenses if applicable by the jurisdiction.

• When you take advantage of our outsourcing services, your documents will be stored on our secure, single-point-of-entry compliance management platform.

Agency or individual resident license

• If you're an agent or entity that sells, solicits, or negotiates insurance, you have to stay up to date on your licenses.

• CSC can help you by applying through the state department of insurance or equivalent office for an insurance broker license.

Agency of individual nonresident license

• Whether your producers are conducting business in their resident state, in their home state, or as a nonresident in a foreign state, CSC can help.

Surplus lines

• Admitted insurance carriers have standard underwriting and pricing processes that can decline certain risks, creating a need for additional coverage in the marketplace. Surplus insurers fill that need by insuring assets that are considered riskier.

Adjuster

• Insurance adjusters may require a specialized license known as an adjuster license. CSC can help adjustors apply for a license from the department of insurance or equivalent office.

Third-party administrators

• CSC can obtain a third-party adjuster (TPA) license on your behalf.
