FSRA insurance agent licence lookup.
Ontario insurance agents are licensed by FSRA. Here is how to use FSRA's public agent listing, what it can and cannot tell you, and the checks to make before you pay for a policy.
Short answer: open FSRA's Licensing Link, choose “Agents Licensed in Ontario”, and search by licence number, last name or city. A licence check does not show enforcement history, so check that separately.
How the FSRA agent search works
Per FSRA, a listing of licensed agents is available from the Licensing Link link on fsrao.ca, under “Agents Licensed in Ontario”. Members of the public can confirm an agent is licensed to do business in Ontario and search the listing by licence number, last name or city.
FSRA also publishes a licensed insurance agents dataset on its Open Data pages, but the searchable Licensing Link is the simpler route for a one-off check.

Before you pay for a policy
FSRA warns that fraudsters pose as licensed insurance agents or brokers and sell counterfeit policy documents and pink slips, so verify the licence before paying. For auto insurance, FSRA says to check that your agent or insurer is licensed with FSRA, and to check insurance brokers separately with Registered Insurance Brokers of Ontario (RIBO).
What a licence check does not cover
FSRA advises that a licence check does not cover enforcement history; look at its Enforcement Online database separately for any action against the agent.
