What’s included in your Travelers insurance card

Your insurance card from Travelers proves that you carry at least your state’s minimum required insurance coverage, and should be kept in your vehicle any time you’re driving. If you’re pulled over by law enforcement, you’ll need to be able to provide proof of insurance. You’ll also need it to register your vehicle.
Your ID card won’t show the specific coverages you carry, your coverage limits, or your rates. Rather, it shows:
  • The name and address of your insurance provider (e.g. Travelers)
  • The company’s NAIC (National Association of Insurance Commissioners)  number 
  • Name insured name and address
  • Your car’s make, model, and vehicle identification number (VIN) 
  • The start and expiration dates of your policy
  • Phone numbers for claims and roadside assistance
To view more detailed information regarding your insurance policy (like your coverage limits or deductibles), you’ll need to log into your MyTravelers® account or contact your insurance agent.

In most states, yes. Most states—with the exception of
New Mexico
and
Massachusetts
allow you to show a digital copy of your insurance ID card as proof of insurance. That means that if you’re pulled over by law enforcement, you can use the Travelers mobile app to pull up your insurance card right on your phone and prove you’ve met your state’s financial responsibility law. 
Major car insurance companies like
