Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Florida all-lines adjuster exam cover?

The 2026 DFS content outline weights the exam as 28 percent casualty and liability insurance, 28 percent fire and allied lines including marine and dwelling, 15 percent motor vehicle physical damage and mechanical breakdown, 14 percent property and liability concepts, contracts, law and adjusting practices, 11 percent selected Florida statutes and rules, 2 percent health insurance and 2 percent residual markets.

How long is the exam and what is the passing score?

The Florida All Lines Adjuster examination consists of 100 scored questions plus 10 unscored pretest questions, with a 2-hour time limit. The published passing score is 70 percent.

How is an all-lines adjuster different from a public adjuster?

An all-lines adjuster (6-20 or 7-20) works for an insurer or an adjusting firm. A public adjuster (3-20) is retained by the policyholder and owes a fiduciary duty to the insured. Under F.S. § 626.864(2) the same individual may not hold both licenses at the same time.

What continuing education is required?

Florida adjusters complete 24 hours of continuing education every two years by the end of their birth month: a 4-hour update course specific to the license held plus 20 elective hours. The elective requirement drops to 16 hours after 6 years of licensure and to 6 hours after 25 years for a licensee holding a CLU, CPCU or a bachelor of science or higher in risk management or insurance.
