While it varies from state to state, you have 30 days to change over your
car insurance
and registration after moving to West Virginia. However, to avoid any issues, it’s best to change over your insurance as soon as possible.
To change your insurance, call your current insurance provider to see if they operate in West Virginia. Although most major insurance companies operate in almost every state, smaller or regional companies may not.
Your address and the
minimum required coverage
could also impact your rates. You may see an increase or decrease in your insurance premiums.
Should your rate increase, consider shopping around. The easiest way to find quotes from top insurance providers in West Virginia is with
