Overseas insurance is an easy way to protect your car, motorcycle, or personal property when you move to a different country. Please note that overseas insurance isn't travel insurance and doesn't include health insurance.

If you're moving abroad, whether with the military, government, or as an expat, GEICO Financial Services GmbH (a GEICO affiliate) can help take the hassle out of getting international car insurance, motorcycle insurance, and personal property insurance coverage. If you're shipping your car, they can help arrange international marine transit insurance. GEICO GmbH can connect you with the international insurance you need.

Driving your car

If you plan to drive your car outside of the United States, it's important to make sure you have proper auto insurance coverage before hitting the road. Our auto insurance policies do not extend to cover you in foreign countries, so it's important to research and obtain additional coverage. Check the specific insurance requirements for the country you'll be driving in, as they can vary widely. It's recommended to plan ahead and purchase coverage well in advance of your trip to ensure that you're protected while driving abroad.

International rental car insurance

You should consider purchasing international rental car insurance when renting a car abroad to protect yourself from potential damages or accidents. There are many credit card companies and rental car agencies that offer insurance coverage, but you should read the terms and conditions carefully to make sure you're adequately covered. You should contact your credit card company with questions about coverage and compliance with international auto insurance policies.

Before you drive or rent a car in a foreign country, make sure you know the specific insurance requirements and laws. Some countries may require you to purchase certain types of coverage or provide proof of insurance before you're allowed to drive on their roads. It's also important to note that insurance coverage may vary widely depending on the country, so it's important to do your research in advance.

Be sure to carefully review the international rental car insurance policy before purchasing it to ensure you know what is covered. Some policies may have exclusions or limitations that could leave you vulnerable in certain situations. Also, be aware of any deductibles or out-of-pocket expenses that may apply if the rental car is damaged or in an accident. By doing your research and carefully reviewing your options, you can ensure that you're adequately protected while driving a rental car abroad.
