Posted on 30 November 2009 at 6:31 am in car insurance cover.

well if i drive from U.S to El Salvador and my car gets stolen or involved in a accident , would my insurance cover my vehicle???
thanks

It depends on who your car insurance provider is, not all countries will recognize your car insurance coverage if you do get into a vehicle mishap there. Also, not all insurance policies will have provisions to cover you if you are outside the U.S (and other applicable territories.)

Some big insurers like GEICO or Farmers would probably have overseas affiliates to take care of your car insurance coverage needs. I would recommend you ask your carrier immediately to find out if they have affiliates on the countries you’ll be passing to reach El Salvador. Check out the article I referenced below so you can get a better idea about overseas car insurance coverage.

Hope this helps!
