Get a Mexico Car Insurance Policy With GEICO

Your US auto insurance policy won't cover your car if you drive into Mexico. To have coverage while driving in Mexico, you need to buy a separate Mexico tourist auto policy.

Mexico car insurance is competitively priced and offers customizable short-term or extended coverage options, including physical damage, liability, vandalism, partial theft, medical payments, roadside assistance, and more. Check out the Mexico car insurance coverages for more details.

Insuring a Rental Car in Mexico

Getting rental car insurance in Mexico may be a bit hard. Don't worry. We're here to help you get prepared.

Mexican Car Insurance Through the Rental Company

If you rent a car in Mexico, start by asking the rental agency for insurance. In most cases, you can get car insurance directly through them. Since most US auto insurers only insure rentals with US license plates, getting coverage through the Mexican rental agency is usually the only option.

Renting a vehicle in the US and driving it into Mexico is a different story. Not all rental companies allow drivers to take their cars into Mexico. You should check with the rental location first. Some rental companies only allow travel to Mexico from certain areas. You may also be charged an additional fee and or may be required to purchase insurance through them.

Mexican Car Insurance Through Your Credit Card Company

Did you know that Visa®, MasterCard®, American Express®, Discover®, and other card companies provide rental car coverage?

Before you book your rental car, call the number on the back of your credit card. If you book the rental with that card, your card company might offer insurance coverage.

Some companies have additional requirements or don't provide liability insurance, so confirm the details with your card company.

Roadside Assistance in Mexico

Roadside assistance is available with your Mexico auto policy, including towing, flat tire repair, fuel delivery, and more. Help is just a call away 24 hours a day in both English and Spanish.
