Insurance

Now Available:  The Office of the Superintendent of Insurance has partnered with the Nova Scotia Business Registry to provide an on-line searchable database of all Insurance Agents and/or Insurance Agencies licensed in Nova Scotia.

The Office of the Superintendent of Insurance supervises the business of insurance in the province.

The Consumer Information section contains basic information on the insurance, auto insurance, the role of government, and how to find answers and file complaints on insurance matters.

The sections on Licensing and Insurance Taxes provide information on meeting regulatory requirements.

The remaining sections: Forms, Publications, Legislation and Links contain documents and resources of interest to both consumers and the industry.
