Imagine finally getting it all ready and geared up to go on your dream road trip to Mexico. You pass through the long highway lanes and get to the border with a big adventure waiting for you at the other side of the border. But wait, you forgot to get your auto insurance for your car. Your entire trip could start with a bitter taste. Now all of this could be avoided if only you took the time to research and get Mexican auto insurance quotes early on and bought a good policy before you start your trip.
Buy Auto Insurance In Advance
There are two good reasons to get your Mexican Auto insurance when you plan your trip itself.
- Vehicles on Mexican federal roads and bridges must carry third-party liability insurance (Ley de Caminos, Puentes y Autotransporte Federal, art. 63 Bis), and your existing auto insurance does not meet that: Baja Bound's FAQ says US and Canadian insurance is not considered proof of financial responsibility under Mexican law. Insurance is not on the Mexican consulate's list of requirements for entering with a foreign vehicle (Traveling to Mexico by Land); for the documents that are, see what you need before you drive into Mexico.
- You absolutely need auto insurance for every kind of travel you make with your vehicle. Insurance provides you with the extra protection to keep you worry-free and well taken care of in case of an accident or unexpected breakdowns.
Procure Mexican Auto Insurance Quotes
Now, as you are inevitably going to buy Mexican Auto insurance anyway, why not take time to research and choose the policy that best fits your needs? Be ready with the essential details such as:
- The vehicle model, year of manufacture,
- Trip details such as destination, traveling dates (duration of travel)
- And the driver details. Contact Mexican insurance providers over call or over mail asking for a quote.
- The particular coverage you seek other than the usual liability coverage. This could include towing assistance, legal assistance, and any other coverage, including passenger coverage, and so on.
Get your quotes, and do make sure you compare not just the price but also the other factors like:
- Optional coverage
- Cancellation and reschedule policies
- Customer support and language support for your preferred language
Ensure your final decision is taken after proper due diligence and that you know which insurer underwrites the policy. Get referrals and seek customer testimonials to ensure you are working with the right insurance provider who can meet your needs.
