Mississippi Code Title 83. Insurance § 83-11-7

No insurer shall fail to renew a policy unless it shall mail or deliver to the named insured, at the address shown in the policy and to the named creditor loss payee, at least thirty (30) days' advance notice of its intention not to renew. This section shall not apply if there is no named creditor loss payee and:

A notice of nonrenewal is not required when a replacement policy form is issued by the same insurer or when an insured is transferred to a licensed affiliate of the insurer, so long as the transfer or replacement results in the same or substantially similar coverage. Whenever a replacement policy form is issued by the same insurer, or when transfer of an insured to a licensed affiliate occurs documents signed by the insured are applicable to the replacement policy form, the coverage transferred to a licensed affiliate insurer, or both, and remain valid and enforceable.

Whenever a replacement policy form providing the same or substantially similar coverage is issued by the same insurer, or by a licensed affiliate insurer, such insurer shall mail or deliver to the policyholder, at least thirty (30) days in advance of the effective date of renewal, written notice of any terms or conditions that are less favorable to the policyholder.

A transferring insurer shall notify the Mississippi Insurance Department at least forty-five (45) days in advance of notifying a policyholder that its personal or commercial lines insurance policies will be transferred to another licensed insurer within the same insurance group or same holding company. The notice shall include the name of insurer transferring the personal or commercial lines policies and the name and financial rating of the insurer receiving the transferred personal or commercial lines policies.

A transferring insurer shall provide the policyholder written notice of the policy transfer at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the policy term and shall include the financial rating of the insurer receiving the transferred policy. Such notice must be provided to the policyholder with the notice of renewal premium at least thirty (30) days before the effective date of the transfer.

Renewal of a policy shall not constitute a waiver or estoppel with respect to grounds for cancellation which existed before the effective date of such renewal, and if a policy shall be cancelled as authorized by this article prior to such policy's renewal, such cancellation shall terminate any right of renewal conferred by this article.
