How much does Mexican car insurance cost?

Mexican car insurance costs $23.25 USD for one day of liability only or $31.62 USD for one day of full coverage, and $197.00 or $438.38 USD for a full year (Chubb Tourist Auto, 2026-09-17, 2022 sedan valued at $20,000, tax and fee included). Per day, full coverage drops from $31.62 on a one-day pass to about $1.39 on an annual policy. The table below shows every term Chubb sells and what moves the price.

Mexican car insurance cost by term (liability only vs. full coverage)

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.

Why a one-day policy costs $23.25 and a year costs $197.00

Every Chubb Tourist Auto policy carries a fixed policy fee of $18 USD (US$35 on 6-month and annual terms) plus 16% Mexican tax. On a one-day liability pass the net premium is only about $5, so the fee is most of the price; on an annual policy the fee is a rounding error. That is why the per-day cost falls so fast: three days cost $33.75, a week $54.75, a month $143.60.

What changes your price

· Vehicle value: full coverage is rated on the declared value of the car. A $40,000 SUV costs more than the $20,000 sedan in the table; liability only does not depend on the value. · Term: daily plans run 1 to 30 days; then 30-day, 90-day, 6-month and annual plans. From about 23 days the 30-day plan is cheaper than a daily plan. · Territory: all of Mexico, northern border states only, or Baja California/Baja California Sur/Sonora only. · Deductible: the variable deductible (5% of value for damage, 10% for theft) is 15 to 18% cheaper than the fixed $500/$1,000 one. · Extras: RC Plus raises liability to $500,000 USD; Platinum adds vandalism, partial theft and a deductible waiver when an uninsured driver hits you.

How Timi's price compares

Four of the six main US brokers sell the same Chubb Tourist Auto program, so the policy is the same; what differs is the fee and the service. Lewis & Lewis, which sells Quálitas, publishes annual liability from $154.69 USD with a $500,000 limit (verified on their site on 2026-09-17); Timi's annual liability is $197.00 with a $100,000 limit, or $500,000 with RC Plus. On full coverage Timi's $438.38 annual reference sits below the typical $530 to $700 range published for a comparable sedan. Timi is the licensed Mexican agent (CNSF) and issues in Mexico; claims are handled 24/7 by Chubb.

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.
