How the Montana Life Insurance exam compares

The Montana Life exam is 96 questions, 120 minutes. The examination fee is $65 per exam.

Montana requires no prelicensing course, so you can sit as soon as you are ready. That puts the whole burden of preparation on self-study and practice testing.

Life Insurance questions reviewed by Michael Bennett — Life Insurance, 17 years' experience, Tampa, FL. Last updated July 29, 2026

Figures above are taken from Montana Insurance Licensing Candidate Handbook (Pearson VUE #122700, rev 12/2025) and were verified in July 2026. Requirements change - confirm current details with your state insurance department before you book.

The Montana Life producer exam: general and state parts

Montana splits the Life Insurance licensing exam into a general (national) part and a state-specific part on Montana law: Two portions: General Life 50 scored + 5 pretest (1 hr 15 min) plus State Life 36 scored + 5 pretest (45 min). Time limit: 120 minutes. Passing: 75 (scaled score). The general part is what the practice tests on this page drill - policy types, provisions and riders, underwriting, and federal rules - while the state part comes from Montana's own statutes and regulations, listed in the official content outline.

Candidates who pass the general part but fail the state part usually studied a national textbook and skipped their state's law chapter. Read the outline's state section, note every statute it cites, and confirm the details with the Montana Insurance Commissioner.
