The Commissioner may, upon request of the insurance company on application forms furnished by the Commissioner and upon payment of the fee specified in N.C. Gen. Stat. § 58-33-125, issue to the applicant a restricted license which will be valid only for the representation of the insurance company in a foreign country or territory and either on a United States military installation or with United States military personnel.
