Chubb's border-states zone covers Baja California, Baja California Sur, Sonora, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo León and Tamaulipas; driving deeper into Mexico needs the all-Mexico zone shown in the table above. Fixed deductible: $500 for damage and $1,000 for total theft. Reference profile: car with US plates, driver aged 21 to 74, liability $100,000. Totals include Chubb's policy fee and there is no Mexican tax (IVA) on this product. Every day from 1 to 30, seven vehicle values and both zones: full Chubb price matrix.
At Timi, a 3-day Baja trip has Chubb reference totals of $33.75 USD liability-only or $58.86 full coverage. Policy fees are included.
Build the quote around your vehicle's Mexico itinerary: a Tijuana visit, Rosarito weekend, Ensenada stay or a longer drive down the peninsula. Give the complete route and dates. A destination name on a web page is not the policy's territory; read the territory and insured period on the certificate.
If you are leaving Los Angeles, Orange County, Riverside or San Bernardino, arrange the quote before reaching the border. The California portion of your drive and the Mexico portion are different insurance questions. Ask your home insurer about its coverage and arrange the Mexican protection you need. Do not assume that a brief visit needs no policy review.
Compare liability-only with full coverage for the same vehicle. Damage and theft protection can matter for a financed or higher-value car, but a lender's permission to enter Mexico is a separate issue. If the trip includes off-road driving, a recreational vehicle or a trailer, describe it before buying so an advisor can review the relevant terms.

Measured 2026-11-08: a 2022 sedan, $20,000 USD declared value for full coverage, all Mexico. Prices are references, not a quote for every vehicle.
All reference totals include the policy fee; there is no Mexican tax (IVA) on this product. Included fees: $18.00 USD for 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 30 days; $20.00 USD for 90 days; $35.00 USD for 6 months, 1 year. Do not add the fee again. Your exact quote depends on the vehicle, coverage, territory and dates.
Liability-only and full coverage solve different needs. Liability concerns covered damage or injury to others; full coverage adds covered damage and theft of the insured vehicle, subject to the policy terms and deductibles. The reference includes $100,000 USD liability and $2,000 USD medical expenses. Your quote and certificate determine the benefits actually purchased.
Have the vehicle registration, VIN, travel dates, declared value and planned territory ready. Check the start and end times on the issued certificate. Save the policy and claims contacts offline before driving; a quote or payment receipt is not the policy. An ATV or UTV is quoted, paid and issued online like any car, with no occupant medical expenses: Chubb does not offer that coverage on those units. An RV or motorhome is quoted, paid and issued online too, with a declared value of up to $200,000 USD.
Review Chubb Tourist Auto general conditions alongside the wording delivered with your quote; benefits depend on the selected coverages. Check US official Mexico travel information or Canadian official Mexico travel information for current entry and travel requirements. Insurance does not replace immigration or vehicle import documents.

Tijuana, Rosarito and Ensenada are reached through San Ysidro or Otay Mesa and the coastal toll road (Highway 1D): from the border to Ensenada takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, and from Los Angeles about 3.5 to 4 hours plus the border wait. For Valle de Guadalupe, take the toll road toward Ensenada and turn inland on Highway 3, or cross at Tecate and drive south on Highway 3.
For San Felipe, cross at Calexico into Mexicali and follow Highway 5 along the Sea of Cortez: about 5 to 6 hours from Los Angeles plus the wait. Mexicali is also the way east toward Sonora. One policy covers every crossing and every stop within its dates and territory; there is no separate pass per town.
Towing a boat or a trailer to San Felipe? Say so in the chat when you quote: one personal trailer is allowed and its liability is included, while a vehicle towing more than one trailer is not covered (see what the policy covers). Driving on the beach or off-road is outside the policy.
Snowbirds heading down with an RV or a fifth-wheel usually cross at Calexico–Mexicali. Highway 5 handles big rigs, but the shoulders narrow south of San Felipe; the motorhome page explains how a motorhome is quoted.
Tijuana to Cabo San Lucas is just over 1,000 miles (about 1,700 km) on Highway 1, so a Los Angeles–Cabo road trip usually takes two weeks or more. Buy one policy for every day the car is in Mexico, including the drive back: a 14-day trip prices between the 7-day total ($54.75 USD liability-only, $113.35 full coverage) and the 30-day total ($143.60 and $336.71), and the chat quotes your exact dates.
No temporary import permit (TIP) is required anywhere on the Baja peninsula. If you take the ferry from La Paz or Santa Rosalía to the mainland, you do need a TIP, and the policy's territory must include the mainland: say so in the chat before buying. Highway 1 is narrow for long stretches, around Bahía Concepción near Mulegé and toward Guerrero Negro in whale season (January to March); RV and truck-camper drivers should read the motorhome page.
A chase crew's pickup, SUV or support truck driving the highways can be insured like any other car for race week. The race vehicle itself cannot: racing is excluded from the policy. An ATV or UTV you plan to ride in Mexico is quoted separately, online: see ATV and UTV insurance.
No. A US “Mexico endorsement”, when your insurer offers one, only covers damage to your own car for a short distance into Mexico. Mexican law requires third-party liability from a Mexican insurer, so you still need a Mexican policy.
No. The policy covers the vehicle described in it and your liability to others; boards, bikes, tools and other things you carry are not insured. If you also want damage and theft protection for the truck itself, choose full coverage.
