## Text

(b) If any state imposes fees upon domestic fraternal benefit societies greater than are fixed by this section or sections 38a-595 to 38a-626 , inclusive, 38a-631 to 38a-640 , inclusive, or 38a-800 , the commissioner shall collect from each fraternal benefit society incorporated by or organized under the laws of such other state and admitted to transact business in this state, the same fees as are imposed upon similar domestic societies and organizations by such other state. The expense of any examination or inquiry made outside the state shall be borne by the society so examined.

(c) Each unauthorized insurer declared to be an eligible surplus lines insurer shall pay to the Insurance Commissioner, on or before May first of each year, an annual fee of one hundred twenty-six dollars in order to remain on the list of eligible surplus lines insurers.

(d) For service of process on the commissioner, the commissioner shall demand and receive a fee of fifty dollars for each person or insurer to be served. The commissioner shall also collect, for each hospital or ambulance lien filed, fifty dollars, and for each small claims notice filed, fifteen dollars, each of which shall be paid by the plaintiff at the time of service, the same to be recovered by him as part of the taxable costs if he prevails in the suit.

(e) Each insurance company depositing any security with the Treasurer pursuant to section 38a-83 shall pay to the commissioner three hundred fifteen dollars, annually. In case of an examination or appraisal made outside the office of the Treasurer, and in such case the company in whose behalf such examination or appraisal has been made shall pay to the commissioner two hundred dollars for such examination and the actual traveling expenses of the officer making such examination or appraisal.

(f) Notwithstanding any provision of the general statutes, the commissioner may require that any person required by any provision of this title to pay a fee to the commissioner pay such fee to the commissioner by electronic means. Such person may submit a request to the commissioner for an exception to the electronic fee requirement. The commissioner shall grant such request for an exception, provided the commissioner determines that (1) compliance with the electronic fee requirement is impractical or reasonably causes such person to suffer undue hardship, or (2) good cause exists to grant such requested exception.
