Car insurance for out of country

International car insurance Your U.S. policy likely only covers you in the U.S. and Canada, so you'll need a separate policy when driving in all other countries. Whether you plan to drive your own car across a border or rent or purchase a car overseas, the good news is that you have plenty of options for getting the coverage each country requires.

If you're moving to the states or living in the U.S. long-term, it may make sense to buy insurance from an American car insurance company. To drive legally in the U.S. as a foreign driver, you need insurance and a license from your country of origin, and you may need an International Driving Permit.

Because vacationing in a foreign country doesn’t usually come with automatic coverage from your auto insurance policy, you need answers and solutions to ensure you’re protected while in another country.
