(a) To transact insurance in this state an insurer shall be in compliance with this code, and its charter powers and shall be an incorporated stock insurer, an incorporated mutual insurer or a reciprocal insurer of the same general type as may be formed as a domestic insurer under this code.

(b) No foreign insurer shall be authorized to transact insurance or business on the mutual assessment plan, stipulated premium plan or any similar plan in this state if that insurer does not maintain reserves as required by chapter 6 of this code as applicable to the kinds of insurance or business transacted, wherever transacted in the United States.
