We asked one client what he thought about buying Mexican Auto Insurance online rather than at one of the booths, filling stations, or roadside stands along the border.

These were his comments:

“I have vacationed in Mexico since the 70’s. Nearly all travelers to Mexico plan their vacation, drive to the border then remember that they need to buy Mexican Insurance … then they go buy it at the nearest seller. This is like buying groceries at 7-eleven or ampm mini-mart… your choice is limited, and you don’t have any way to research the Insurance companies that vend at the border. It’s hit or miss… the coverage is not standardized, you wonder what you just bought, AND many times you are asked to pay whatever the market will bear Fees! It’s much easier to purchase online, before you leave home!”

Also consider this: There is a LARGE difference between paper generated Mexico Insurance policies and electronic Internet Mexico Auto Insurance Policies.

Paper policies, are done in the old traditional way by agents throughout California, Texas, and Arizona in local Insurance offices or at the border and mailed to Mexico, often through the regular postal US system.

Basically, an Insurance salesman will manually fill out the paperwork, make a trip to the post office, and mail your policy to Mexico. In an attempt to reduce costs, it isn’t rare to see an office wait to send policies until they sell a substantial amount of them. This means that your policy could be waiting for a couple of days before it is mailed.

Next, it can take upwards to a week for the batched lot to get past customs and make it to Mexico City, where nearly all of the major insurers are located. Then it is processed by your insurer’s system database one at a time.

Internet driven auto Insurance is a far better method of quickly notifying your insurer and distributing policies to you quickly by internet site, E-mail or by fax so YOU BENEFIT.

The real question is what happens if you have an accident and the Insurance company doesn’t have physical evidence of your policy within their system? What happens if you cause an accident on a weekend or at night? Most Insurance brokers work 5 days a week?

Since you need to stay at the accident scene and report all accidents while in Mexico, and most auto accidents are adjudicated within hours, having physical possession of your Car Insurance for Mexico online certificate, which needs to be verified by each insurer, is important.
