Can Undocumented Immigrants Get Car Insurance in Florida?
Yes, undocumented immigrants can buy car insurance in Florida. The main requirement to purchase auto insurance isn’t immigration status—it’s a valid driver’s license and the ability to register your vehicle.
Here’s what matters more than status:
- A valid form of ID (such as a foreign passport or consular ID)
- A valid Florida driver’s license (or in some cases, out-of-state license or ITIN-based workaround)
- Vehicle registration under your name
👉 Important: Florida does not issue driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants—but many use licenses from other states like New York, California, or a foreign license depending on their insurer’s policy.
Why It’s Important to Get Insured—Even Without Status
Driving without car insurance in Florida carries serious risks, especially for undocumented immigrants:
- Fines, license suspension, or jail time
- Vehicle impoundment
- Financial liability if you’re in an accident
- Increased exposure to law enforcement and immigration risks
Being insured protects both you and your family—financially and legally.
What Are Your Car Insurance Options?
Many insurance companies in Florida will work with undocumented immigrants as long as you have:
- A driver’s license (U.S. or foreign)
- An ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number)
- A valid vehicle registration
Common coverage options include:
- Liability insurance (required by Florida law)
- Comprehensive & collision coverage
- Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage
- Medical payments coverage (MedPay)
At MyEasyRate, we specialize in helping immigrants find affordable, legally compliant car insurance with flexible documentation requirements.
Tips to Get Car Insurance Without a Social Security Number
Don’t have a Social Security number? No problem. Follow these steps:
- Use your ITIN instead—it’s accepted by many insurers.
- Provide alternative ID like a foreign passport or matrícula consular.
- Get a license in a friendly state (if you’re able) like NY, CA, or IL.
- Work with an insurance agency experienced in serving immigrant communities (like us!)
- Be honest about your documentation—some companies are more flexible than others.
How Much Does Car Insurance Cost for Undocumented Drivers?
Your rate depends on factors like your:
- Driving history
- Age and gender
- Vehicle type
- ZIP code
On average, undocumented immigrants may pay slightly more, especially if you lack a U.S. driving record. However, working with a bilingual agent can help you compare multiple quotes and find hidden discounts.
