About

According to Michael Mitchell, VP of Sales and Marketing at InsuranceMex (http://www.insurancemex.com), "it is imperative that insurance agents inform tourists into Mexico about what coverage into Mexico are all about."  Mitchell continues, "US companies may offer limited miles and/or days of coverage into Mexico for autos and RVs for example however the problem lies with the type of coverage.  These companies offer what is called physical damage coverage - in other words, it is the comp and collision part of your policy."

As in the U.S., Mexico law requires that an individual carry insurance to pay for damages cause to a third-party. If you collide with another car or injure someone you must respond with an ability to pay. "The Mexican government will protect its citizens therefore an accident involving a tourist must have some sort of resolution or means to satisfactorily meet the law requirements", Mitchell said.
A cutting-edge company, InsuranceMex has an online system in place that allows tourists to quote online, purchase online and even print out a policy online, the wave of the future in self-service technology and around the clock availability.
Mitchell also states, "Mexican insurance is a clone of US insurance but with a tourist flavor, these coverage provide special services in some of our programs such as legal assistance, travel assistance, medical evacuation and return home in case your car is stolen by way of airline tickets. InsuranceMex does not check your record or run your credit and you can buy for how long you need to."

In a quote done online, a customer can purchase a policy for 1 day, 1 weekend or 1 year, it all depends on what the customer wants.
