Where can I buy Mexican car insurance before crossing at San Ysidro tonight?

At timi.mx, on your phone, in about two minutes: a one-day Chubb Mexican policy costs $23.25 USD for liability only or $31.62 USD for full coverage (2026-09-17, tax and fee included), you can set it to start in 30 minutes, and the PDF with the 24/7 claims numbers lands in your email before you reach the San Ysidro booths. Nothing is printed or mailed; the email on your phone is your proof.

Buy it in the next ten minutes: what happens

· Open the chat and type your car: year, make, model, plates or VIN. Timi quotes liability only and full coverage instantly. · Pick the term (one day, a weekend or more) and the start: "today, in 30 minutes" sets the exact hour in Mexican Pacific time for Tijuana. Coverage starts at that hour, not at purchase. · Give the driver's name, US address, license and email; pay by card in USD. · Chubb issues the policy; the PDF arrives by email in a minute or two. Save it on the phone so it is there without signal.

Tonight's prices

Chubb Tourist Auto reference totals as of 2026-09-17, 2022 sedan valued at $20,000 USD, all of Mexico, tax and policy fee included. Liability only: $100,000 USD liability + $2,000 medical per person. Your price depends on the vehicle value, dates and territory; the chat shows it before asking for any personal data.

Before you get in the San Ysidro line

· Check the start hour on the PDF: a policy bought at 9:40 pm to start "now" is valid at 10:10 pm. · License, registration and the policy on your phone. No TIP for Baja; FMM only for stays over seven days. · Save the Chubb claims numbers: 800 801 0117 in Mexico, +1 877 699 6679 from the US. Report any accident before you cross back. · Weak signal at the booths: buy while you still have US coverage, a mile before the line; the chat resumes where you left it if the connection drops. If your trip is a weekend rather than a day, see weekend coverage; for what the policy includes, the coverage table; if something happens, what to do after an accident.

Measured 2026-09-23: 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 Mexican tax and policy fees. 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.

Check these details before buying

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 still needs assistance from an agent.

Sources and the next step

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.
