How do I change my car insurance to a different state?
I'm planning to move to Oregon from California in two weeks. I'll be taking my car and will need to switch my car insurance over. How do I change it to a different state?

Although you’re temporarily covered by your insurance company when you move, you will need car insurance in
Oregon
to register your vehicle there.Additionally, not every company operates in every state. If you’re with a major company like Progressive or Allstate, it’s likely that you can change your coverage. However, a local or regional company may not cover you beyond California.
Rates between states also vary. Car insurance is state-regulated and every state has its own
minimum required coverage
, so rates can differ significantly when you move.To see what your new rate might be, inform your insurance provider of your plans to move. An agent can provide you with a quote for your new address. You should also comparison shop with other companies. Since location influences premium prices, you may find another company that offers a better rate in Oregon.
