Most car owners are familiar with the above topic, but there are options for individuals to be insured with a foreign driver’s insurance. The Avail Insurance Solutions LLC of California, Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona team can provide further information or tailor a temporary auto insurance policy that safeguards an international driver from potential disaster. <\/span><\/p>\n

What are the Parameters for Purchasing Auto Insurance with a Foreign Driver’s Insurance?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Foreign drivers can purchase a short-term auto insurance policy (6-12 months). It is the same requirement as renting a vehicle at the airport. The rental car company often offers minimal auto insurance as part of the agreement. Most insurance companies believe it is the best option for foreign tourists driving in the United States. <\/span><\/p>\n

But if your stay is any longer, you must obtain a valid United States driver’s license. Depending on your home country, you could apply for an international driving permit with the local Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV) where you are staying. Keep in mind that you may have to forfeit your country driver’s license.<\/span><\/p>\n

Canadian Driver’s Requirements<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Canadian drivers crossing the American border have slightly different requirements. If they’re vacationing, their driver’s license and a valid auto insurance policy are required to travel throughout the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, if you are permanently relocating to the United States, you will need a valid driver’s license from a local DMV. The process begins by forfeiting your Canadian driver’s license and passing a written test before receiving a United States driver’s license.<\/span><\/p>\n
