17:22B-7. Written examination
7. a. The commissioner shall require every individual applicant and each sublicensee to take and pass a written examination to his satisfaction, except in the case of a renewal license, in order to determine the competency of the applicant or sublicensee to act as a public adjuster. The commissioner is authorized to enter into contracts with private vendors that are reasonable and necessary in regard to examinations.
b. The commissioner may, in his discretion and on terms he may prescribe, dispense with the examination in the case of any individual applicant or proposed sublicensee who:
(1) holds a license as a public adjuster issued by another state in which the licensing provisions of public adjusters are substantially similar to the provisions of this act and which similarly recognizes and accepts public adjusters licensed in New Jersey; or
(2) previously has operated a public adjusting business in this State.
