Where a Washington resident owns an insurance contract issued by a company authorized to do business in Washington, that company may not transfer such insurance contract to a company which is not authorized to do business in Washington. Acting as the assuming company in a transfer of insurance involving a Washington risk constitutes the transaction of insurance for which a Washington certificate of authority, license, or registration is required.
