It’s smart that you want to check for accurate information on your car insurance policy. Almost all states require you to have
car insurance
, and you want to make sure your policy is up-to-date.
If you have your policy number, you can use your provider’s online portal to verify your insurance information. Many providers even offer apps to make the process even easier.
There are also some states that allow you to verify insurance through the Department of Public Safety. To do this you’ll likely need:
  • Your policy number
  • Vehicle identification number
  • Current insurance company
If you have that information, your state can often provide the information for you. You also may be able to check with your local DMV.
