From Mazatlan to Mexico City, from Mayan ruins to miles of beaches— there are many sights and recreational opportunities that attract Americans on short drives and longer driving trips to Mexico. If you're going to do any driving in Mexico, there are several things that you should know about auto insurance requirements and driving safety before you go to ensure a hassle-free trip.

Mexican Auto Insurance Requirements

Though U.S. drivers licenses are valid in Mexico, your American auto insurance is not. Mexican authorities do not recognize American property damage and bodily injury liability coverages; most collision and comprehensive coverages issued by American auto insurance companies are also considered invalid. Thus, the Mexican government requires Mexican auto insurance for all vehicles driven into Mexico and for all vehicles rented in Mexico.

Buying Mexican Auto Insurance

If you're crossing the U.S.-Mexican border in your own car, you can easily purchase Mexican auto insurance on the U.S. side before traveling into Mexico, although you can also buy this auto insurance coverage in most Mexican border cities and towns.
